Ive found a coral beauty angel, a sub-adult banggai cardinal on craigslist for sale for $40 for both. Is this a good price? And can i put them in my 75 gallon tank with one yellow tang? this tank has been up and running for about 5 years Ive had it for about 6 weeks. This guy also has a hippo tang but he wont sell it to me cause he thinks my tanks to small. thanks for the help
 
Well I don't know much, but one thing I worry about is the cardinal. Going in the tank when the tang is already there, it might get picked on a lot. Those guys like to school anyways, and are pretty delicate from my experience.
 
The Yellow tang just might have an attitude when you add those fish. When you do add them and aggression starts up just turn the lights out and maybe move some rock around and you should be OK. The guy was right about a bigger tank.
