Here are a few things you should know to help you decide if a Koran Angel (Pomacanthus semicirculatus) would be a good choice for a 75-gal reef tank:

As juveniles, their diet is mostly algae.
At 6"-7" their coloration changes as they make the transition to adult coloration.
Once they become adults, their diet changes to mostly sponges and corals.
Their maximum size is approximately 16" which means they should have a really large tank.
