I’d like to eventually have a tank with triggers, a puffer, angels, tangs a foxface and wrasses
First off is this mix compatible?
What size tank is needed ?

Yes a 200g for some of the members of those species will be good. That mix is a good mix. Some members will need a larger tank because of size or aggression. Check back with your wish list.

I wouldnt worry about a minimum I would first worry about how big of a tank could you afford. There are tangs as you know that get up to a foot and a half long. I worry about my 525 gallon big big enough for my Naso and Red sea sailfin Tang.

With the amount of larger fish on your list, it sounds like probably the 250 gallon zone. Since a porcupine puffer requires 180 gallons
