A) Can a 2 inch Niger trigger, 3 inch valentini puffer and 7 inch snowflake eel stay in a 55 gallon together for 1 year?

B) If so, after that, can they all live in a 220 gallon with a red tail trigger and a queen angel?

Trying to prepare a large LPS/softy tank for them.

Currently have a mixed reef, but would like some aggressive fish. (This is not the 55 gallon I would put the new fish. This would just be a FOWLR)

Please and Thank you

They should be fine, though in the larger tank the queen angel may eat some of the corals.

Well thank you folks very much. So I should reconsider the angel for the live Coral aspect? If the Coral is the only reason for not having an angel, I can use fake Coral. Heck, it'll save me money on lighting then.

Then that will work.
