No to both tangs.
Yellow should have minimum of 90 gallon.
Hippo they recommend a 180 gallon.

Check liveaquaria.com they have recommended tank size for all fish.

Does anyone know if this is possible?:

-45g long

stocking:
-2 occelaris clowns
- diamond goby
-yellow tang
- hippo tang

cuc:
-Sandsifting starfish
-cleaner shrimp(skunk)
-a view hermits

I this doable or will the tangs fight or grow to big to fast? Is it to much bioload?is it okay to have a sandsifting goby and starfish together?

note: There isn’t gonna be that much rock nore coral. And if it takes the tangs more than a year to grown out of the tank that’s no problem because my lfs is willing to trade the tangs for juvineles again once they get to big.

Yeah it's hard to get any Tangs in a 45.

You can ALWAYS buy them as babys and keep them for 1-2 years, but once they get bigger it's technically fish cruelty lol.

And it's rare to have a detailed upgrade plan for them.

so unless you're committed on turning your dear fish back into the LFS I wouldn't recommend it.

Chances of success with two tangs (or even 1) is low in a tank that size.
