Is a 125 with crushed coral and 90 lbs of live rock with:

1 6.5" foxface
4 3.4" tangs,
3" picasso
2 cardinals
1 engineer goby(might rehome him)
2 clownfish
 
Yea triggerfish, they grow slow, if they get in conflicts I know who would buy them
 
I'd say yes long-term. Agree with possible aggression.
 
3.75" gem tang(has some hhle on its face)
2" purple tang( hhle too, their previous owner didnt care about them)
3" blue hippo
4" sailfin tang

Are these all coming from the same tank of similar dimensions? There's a possibility of reduced aggression if they managed to establish territories without engaging in aggression. I bought a Lamarck's angel, yellow tang, and regal tang from someone who was breaking down their tank. They did, and do, get along very well in a (temporary placement) RSR350.
 
Purple and gem came from a 90, sailfin and blue from a 210, both different owners, rn they swim together usually, like a school
 
Thanks and seems you are at a decent load now. Make sure there are plenty of hiding places as well as swim lanes with lots of flow and they should do well for a while. You will learn with time when they get to be too big and have to make some other decisions. Best of luck
