90 Gallon reef

[smazzuca_34]

Hi, I know I have not posted in a while but I have a couple of questions I would like to ask. First, I am setting up a 90 gallon 48x18x24 aquarium around Christmas time. It will have tunze protein skimmer and tunze calcium reactor. As far as lighting it will have the Nova 8-54 watt T5 lighting. I am wondering If I can keep all types of corals and also all types of clams? Secondly, my fish list is like this: 1 lieutenant tang, 1 maroon clown, 1 yellow tang, 1 blue tang. Is this fish list overstocking the aquarium or not? Thank you in advance.

Too many tangs in too small of a tank. If they are small you will get away with the yellow and the blue for a while.

Scratch the Blue and the Lieutenant Tang.


A Yellow Tang and Convict would do better, but any Tang more than 1 and you could run into problems with aggression. You also need good equipment and maintenance in order to keep parameters in check as well.

Tangs will pobably fight with each other in this size of a tank.
