Hey guys and gals,

We're anticipating upgrading to a 75 gallon mixed reef tank. Does this list of fishes look viable?

*Currently we have:
2 Green Mandarin (they're a pair)
YWG with Pistol Shrimp
Tomini Tang (small)
3 Azure Damsel (all small)

*Here's what we're hoping to add:
a One-spot Foxface
a Firefish (maybe 2)
maybe a pair of Black Clownfish

Is this do-able or too much fish for a 75 gallon? Or, are there alternatives to the fishes we're hoping to add?
Your help and advice is appreciated.
 
If you are upgrading to a 75 you should be fine, but when the fox face gets to big you should switch it out. They can get up to around 9''.
Yeah, that's a concern we have. We have a lot of time to think about it.

just in case be advised fire fish are bad jumpers and can disappear for days
We have experience with fire fish and it is quite amazing how well they jump. While changing tanks our old firefish jumped from one bucket to another
