So i have had a 30g cube for the past year and i just bought a 65 gallon long because i wanted to give my cherub angel a bigger home now that it has grown; and since I’m getter a tank double the size i wanted to know if i could add any other fish to this new tank with my cherub angel (i also have a pair of clowns right now). So anyone who knows if i could add something else or if it would be to much of a bio load please answer cause I don’t want to mess up and end killing my cherub (i love him so much). Thank u for your attention and have a great day
 
Cherub is a tiny dwarf angel. So yea of course you can. Id probly get a small tang like a tomoni or a yellow eye kole tang. And maybe a flame hawk or some gobies
 
To be brutally honest at 65 gallon your stock option is still quite limited to mostly nano fish species- meaning no tangs, no angels, etc. Also, the cherub angel is one of the most notoriously wicked fish. You don't have to worry about other fish tearing this guy up, this guy will make a new hole out of everyone else in a small tank. If you have a cover, you may consider a small feisty wrasse like six line (no flasher wrasses with cherub). You may consider clownfish and damsels. And that's about it tbh. Everything else is going to be a gamble. You might come out the lucky end, or you might lose everyone. And whatever you do, do not add the cherub angel until you have already stock the tank with everything else you want. Once the cherub establishes territory in there, it will try to kill everything else you add after it.

Tomini tang is tiny. 4 inchs or so and most tangs never ever get to their (live aquaria) sizes. 65g is fine for the smaller tang species
