tank stocking question

[cpayne015]

Will it be OK for a magnificent foxface with yellow tang, purple tang, harlequin tusk in a 120. Everything gets along great now and am making sure before I order. The other fish in there are a flame angel, diamond goby, and pair of clowns

That's three grazers in a 125, so it would be sketchy. Most likely the tangs will not get along. I would drop one of them. Also, the tusk isn't shrimp/small fish safe.

I'd also be concerned adding all them at once. that is a huge shift in bioload and your bacteria may not ramp up quick enough leading to a nutrient spike/problem

Oh yeah, good point, I just assumed you'd QT the tangs and add them one a time. Marine Ich is no joke.

Everything is already in tank. I was curious how the magnificent foxface would do with those guys. I know tusk are generally not invertabrae friendly but this guy is about six inches long and doesn't bother a soul surprisingly. If they all do not fair I will catch my yellow tang and put him in the 65
