There's something fishy about this build...

I have 2 tangs in my 75.

Mr. Purple Wrassehole
And
Flamin Moe
3 clowns
1 banana
2 damsels (who thought they were wrasseholes till they met Mr. Purple)
1 female mandarin

And
1 male mandarin in my sump
C. Isosceles are one of my personal favorite. This is tequila

Is it 1 fish per a gallon?
Or is that 1 tang per a gallon?
I’ve done the calculation with wrasse but tangs have a different body shape
Assuming the average wrasse is 10cm long 3cm tall and 2cm wide. Using pi/6 as a ratio for volume lost due to a wrasse being more spherical then rectangular prism shaped.

10cm*3cm*2cm*pi/6=31.4cm^3 = 0.0314L = 0.00830 gallons

180gal/0.00830gal= 21,689 wrasse

Also this is what I consider a banana wrasse. It is bigger though I’m sure many people get on just fine with a chrysus and it’s no reason to be ashamed
