Thinking of getting a bigger tank, advice please?

[Nataleeia]

So hi all, my axolotl tank sprung a leak yesterday which led me to think about maybe upgrading my marine tank and letting him have it instead, the biggest space I have is 1.3 metres. I would love to have a yellow tang and a powder blue but have read its not so much about litre size more length of tank. I currently have a nano tank with 2 clownfish and a jewel algae blenny, couple of snails and crabs a cleaning shrimp and a peppermint shrimp.
My ambition in time is to have my very own porcupine puffer but I need to wait til I have an enormous space for one of those But my question is what can or could I stock in a 60 gallon tank? 120x50x136cm is the one im looking at currently.
Thanks, x

You could get away with a yellow tang for quite a while in a 60 but not a powder blue.

Yellow will be fine in a 60, take it out once you notice major aggression, mine would flip my hand everytime I went into the tank, that’s how I took it he was done for my cube

I have a 56 gallon column tank which is only slightly smaller than the 60 gallon that you are considering. I have a nice mixture of different size fish and they get along very well. I have a tomini tang, a coral beauty angelfish, a pajama cardinalfish, an ocellaris clownfish, and a yellow watchman goby. Those are my bigger fish and then I have a green citron goby, 2 masked gobies, a neon cleaner goby and I used to have a barnacle blenny that I plan to replace. If I didn't have shrimp, I would get a sharpnose toby puffer as I love the personalities of puffers.

My tank does have a fair amount of rock and territories so all the fish can have their own space. This tank is coming on its 7th year so it is well established too and I have a 30 gallon sump in the basement for easy water changes. Here is a pic I took yesterday.
