Hey all just started adding fish into my 125 Gallon fish only tank. Right now I have a small Korean Angel, A Very Very small talking the size of a quarter clown trigger and a Valamingii Tang which I now which I realize may get to big and debating taking it back to the store my honest mistake. Any opinions on fish to stock my tank. Thanks all.
 
Take it back asap (before you get to love it). It reminds me of the before-I-knew-better Unicorn Tang that I took back after it grew for 3 weeks before my eyes in my 150. Lol.

Just to give you a visual to go by, this is what a fairly large Angel and a fairly large Clown Trigger looks like in a 150. Notice the very minimal rockwork, and very minimal other fish.

Choose your fish selection wisely; measure twice, cut once. Lol!

Those angels get massive too. I would rehome both. Clown triggers are really active and need aggressive tank mates. Mine is in a 300 gallon and uses all the space
