I am starting my first saltwater tank and want to do a simple reef tank with really easy anemones and easy corals. i am trying to figure out what fish that i want to put into it. i want to do clown fish but there are 4 different kind that i want to do. can i put 4 different kinds of clownfish in the same tank or will they fight. i also want to have a somewhat bigger fish for the tank too but i dont want it to be so big that its to big for the tank. i want to know what kind of i guess medium fish would be good for a 75 gallon tank. i have a few idea but let me know what you think. I really like the fox face and think that would be a cool fish. I have also thought about a tang like a yellow kole or tomini. angel fish are also an option that i have looked at. Is there anything else i could do?
 
You might be able to host multiple clownfish; I’d try to find some bonded pairs. A single dwarf angelfish will work. There are lots of other fish besides tangs: damsels, anthias, chromis, gobies, grammas, dottybacks, hawkfish, blennies, etc.

1 pair of the same species

Foxface - borderline for tank size
Yellow - Get big and aggressive for a 75
Kole or Tomini - One of these would be the best of the bigger fish you mentioned. Could arguably be in a 75 forever.
A dwarf angel would be a great medium sized option for a 75. Flame and coral beauty are the most common, but there are lots of species.

Lots and lots of choices. Some good ones listed above.
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
