Id like some feed back on the compatability of my list. I would like to see at least half of these fish in my tank. The total full grown size is 60.5" of all the fish listed. In a 93 gallon cube that would equal 1.53" per gallon=Overstocked. With displacment calculations (Overflow, Sump, Plumbing, Rock, Etc...) the total water volume will be around 130 gallons. I plan on one of the two Tangs depending on which one will live with the others. Thanks for positive feedback in advance.

3 Orange Line Chromis
1 McCosker's Flasher Wrasse
2 Black Ocellaris Clownfish
1 Powder Brown Tang
1 Purple Firefish
2 Purple Dottyback
1 Harptail Blenny
1 Springeri Dottyback
1 White Tail Brisletooth Tang
2 Blue Sapphire Damsel
1 Sleeper Gold Head Goby

Hi, the list seems fine to me. I would add more chromis, about 7 or 9. these fish school together and three, like I have in my 40b, doesn't show like it should. Mine, they hang together but it would look great in a display a larger group schooling, IMO. the sunshine chromis look cool too.

IME, dottybacks are extremely aggressive. If you must have one choose only one, but I wouldn't even risk it.

Thanks for that heads up.

The white tail Bristletooth is extremely hard to find, which may limit your options on the tangs. What are your dimensions?

I don't think a powder brown tang will work out in a tank that size long term. I think a bristletooth like the one you have listed would probably be ok, but not an Acanthurus.
