Adding Dispar Anthias

How long should I wait before adding my sailfin tang? I didn't want to overload or stress these guys so I've waited. I added them last weekend.

You should wait until you have a MUCH larger tank, 180g or so for a sailfin tang, those get up to 15 or 16 inches, it wouldnt have room to turn in your current tank.

Not what I want to hear but I trust that. Going to see if the lfs will trade in for a bristle tooth or maybe a scopas. Thank you.

Would a Lemonpeel be too large?

I don't know about a lemonpeel but a tomini tang or a Kole tang would look nice.

I kept telling my friend that and he won't believe me, he says i know much more about sw fish then he does but still he won't believe me. I mean he has a sailfish and a blue hippo tang in a 75g he also had a yellow tang but it died last week.

Yeah that's too much tang and not enough space for a 75 gal. Not any of those besides the yellow would do long term. I wish my 150 was longer but I do like how it looks. I'm thinking a bristletooth of some kind but not sure which one. Anyone have a colorful one they can share?
