Having had a Harlequin in a 150 FOWLER, I'd have advise 'no' in a 90. :(

Looks fine to me, what kind of tang? I think the tusk would be fine based on the one I had if you did a hawk fish and no tang so its really the only free swimming fish for room or replace the tusk with a different wrasse thats smaller (melenarus for example)

Ah okay, I would probably take the tusk out anyway if you want the tang. They will compete for swimming room in your 90. You could do your eel, tang, hawk, dwarf angel and a smaller wrasse (around the size of the melenarus to not tempt the eel). Thats what I would do and I think that gives you a good stock with 3 free swimming fish, a hawkfish and leaf fish to perch, and the eel to take over the bottom of the tank
