Re: 75 Gallon
Are you having any problems? The damsels, are they bothering other fish?

Re: 75 Gallon
Although the Tang would be better off in a 125 (longer tank) I'd say the bio-load is within the capacity of the system. I am assuming you are doing regular water changes and detritus removal.
I'd worry a bit about the Damsels getting too pushy as they age.

Re: 75 Gallon
Not having any problems just curious. I didn't know Damsel's were agressive toward other fish. They are actually new to the tank. I had Damsel's at when I first started to cycle the tank then I added an Lionfish you can guess what happened. I didn't know any better. I had to give my Lionfish away because it out grew the tank. I was doing water changes once a month (50%) now I do them weekly (10%). Should I remove the Damsel's??

Re: 75 Gallon
I would just keep an eye on them. If they turn into bullies, then I'd get them out, or the fish they bully.
