Are these good fish to get

[Reef Devils]

I have a 75 gallon display with 2 clownfish. I am getting 3 Kupang damsels and 2 skunk clear shrimp. Are those a good choice? I want to as 2 tangs is a yellow tang a good one to and and what are other good wine to add?

They should all be fine - azures are generally fairly mellow. I have 7 damselfish in my system that all get along fantastically: 1x kupang (azure), 3x sapphire (blue devil), 1x talbot, 1x domino and 1x 2-stripe. Keep in-mind that each will want their own unique hiding spot (rock ledge, cave, crevice, etc.)

75g, I think that is just fine, need lots of hiding spots.
Go with yellow tang if you can get it, superior rock cleaner.
Shrimps fine. Another tang, ok, best might be a bristltooth as they don’t get to, too large.
Might have some squabbles at first, but should settle down.

Wait... I want a tang awful bad in my 75G and have beeb arrested by the tang thought police. Is it actually okay for me to get one??

 

[Reef Devils]

Yes it just depend on size

Get rid of those 2, before it’s too late!

Why? They're two of the most laid-back and peaceful fish in my tank. Even calmer than the sapphire damsels...

Other than being aggressive, have you seen them at or near full size?

Yea, my LFS has some that are full size from the same batch. Also very peaceful with another half dozen tank mates.

I’d personally only do 1 tang in that tank, 2 pushes it and even then 1 is pushing it and you’d only really be able to have a Ctenochaetus tominiensis. For the Zebrasoma Tangs like yellows I’d personally aim for a 5’x2’x2’ at the minimum as they swim more than most Ctenochaetus tangs and even my current Ctenochaetus is wanting a 5’ tank (She’s happy in the 4’x2’x2’ but she could do with the 5’x2’ floor space).

If you want a fish similar to a tang but won’t risk needing to be rehomed go for a species of Dwarf Angel as whilst they can be RSWC the Coral Beauty is the safest and equally as beautiful (Yes it’s common but they’re all beautiful).
