Hey guys,

Do you guys think these all will get along in the long run? I was eyeing a mimic tang today but not sure if they will get along when the mimic is an adult.

Regular foxface, half black angel, starry blenny, and yellow mimic tang. The mimic is the mimic of the regular yellow angel not the lemon peel angel.

The ‘regular yellow Angel’ is the Lemon Peel, the other yellow Angel that is mimicked is the rarer Heraldi Angel.
As for getting along they will all get along :)

Only reason why I say that is this mimic doesn't have the blueish silver around its eyes, gills, or fins. That's why I was thinking it's the other one.

No coral I gave up cause I think my wrasse is eating them.

I have 2 75g tanks now. Plan on upgrading again when I have a bigger place.
Wrasses don’t eat coral, your parameters are what will harm them whilst fish like angels will finish them off if they’re not happy (or if the Angel is just not loving the coral).

0 ammonia
0 nitrites
10-20 nitrates
8.0-8.2 ph
Temp hangs between 75-78 depending on lights and A/C.
I clean filter once every 4 weeks.
I also water change 15g once a week.
I use reef crystal salt to do water changes so I don't get why the corals always pass.
Got an air stone for extra oxygen and 2 water pumps up top for circulation.
I see some coralline algae building up on the filter tube and pumps. The rocks have some as well.
I am even trying to keep a pod population without a sump or refugium.
I got a U/V sterilizer lined into my filter that is rated for 125 gallons.
I use nutrient drops and garlic in their food and I only use high quality food.

I honestly couldn't tell you why my corals never survive.

With no coral, then the angel isn't a concern. My only issue would be the mimic tang outgrowing a 75 eventually.

My Mimic was the first fish in the tank after my restart, which was probably not the best way to do it. He's been a bit of a bully to newcomers of any kind, but he gets over it after a few days. I was most worried about adding another tang, but I added a Squaretail, and they fought for like half a day and now they're fine.
