How many tangs are too many tangs?

[palito420]

So I REALLY like Tangs. So much so that ive decided to dedicate my tank mostly to tangs and a few other fish more than just corals. I have 150 G dislay and 50 G sump. ETSS tower skimmer with powerful pump (works more than awesome and is meant for 400 G). Got a couple reactors with biopellets and purigen which I dont necessarily run all the time. I have been lucky with my tangs and currently have 11 of them (10 different types) in there and they all seem to get along quite well and dont really fight, but HOW MANY TANGS ARE TOO MANY TANGS? I kinda of think about it as a tang collection, and have thought about adding a few more that I like, but do I have too many in there already?

2 yellow tang
1 huuuge blue tang
1 Purple tang
1 powder blue tang
1 powder brown tang
1 naso tang
1 tang scopas brown
1 orange shoulder tang
1 yellow eye kole tang
1 some other kind of tang (brownish with yellow fins, darted shape kinda, different than other tangs but i cant remember his name)

That is a lot of tangs! How long have you had them all in there?
Based on what I've read, I'd say you're maxed out. They all get bigger... and some much bigger!
Really like your Powder Brown.

Bristletooth Tomini Tang maybe?

Tomini tang is your other one. I'd say your maxed. as they get bigger you'll see it gets harder to feed them.

You have too many already for any long term success (more than a year or two). I'm curious to know how long you have had them all.

Hehehe yeah thought so... I've had 7 of them in there for about 1.5 - 2 years (they were 8 but lost 1 yellow on a power out crisis) and then recently I added 4 more about a month ago. So far so good, but yeah I do realize they grow a lot and will eventually have to get rid of some... ;(
