Tangs and angel fish

[Xclusive Reef]

I am starting a new tank 100 gallon it will be mixed corals. What is the biggest fish recommended for a 100 gallon tank?

On my list are the following

2 clown
1 yellow tang , some other tang
I would like some angel fish
3-4 wrasse

I would say about 10-12 fish

I'd say the yellow will grow to be the largest fish in your tank.. pretty much everything larger will require a 6 ft tank. Other tangs you could consider: tomini, kole, 2 spot bristletooth, square tail. I'd add both tangs at the same time if possible.
Any dwarf angel would work in a tank that size (but some are not as reef friendly as others)

Any angel fish I can add in there in the 6-8 inch I can add?

Probably best advised to stick with the genera Centropyge and Paracentropyge. There are a few angels that don't _seem_ that much larger, but really need more room to maneuver. You can still find quite a bit of variety there, both in color/pattern and behavior.

hey bruce here is a few I was looking at.. Do you mind just giving it a peek and let me know yay or nay for my tank :

Really like these last 3

Blacktail Lemonpeel Hybrid Angelfish
Swallowtail Angelfish
Bellus Angelfish
Spotbreast Angelfish
Watanabei Angelfish

 

[Maritimer]

The lemonpeel hybrid (IIRC, lemonpeels aren't the best-behaved dwarf angel around corals, though they work out for some) should fit your tank size.

The others are all Genicanthus, and even though some of them only get six or seven inches long, as open-water planktivores, they do like room to move around in - likely more room than you can offer them. _Love_ the Watanabei, myself . . .

I feel 1 Genicanthus would work in a 100g. Any Centropyge species would work. Possibly a regal or flagfin, depending on how much of a risk with corals you are willing to take.

+1 on the Regal. Just know they do like LPS and some softies.
