     Just wanted to know how many fish  is recommended  for a 75 gallon? I just dont want to over crowd... The fish i have now are 1 yellow tang, 1 kole yellow eye tang, 2 clarkii clown fish, 2 blue yellow tale damsels and 1 domino damsel. can i add any more or am i at my limit on live stock?

    I woldnt know if that is really the limit, but if I had the same setup with the same fish I would probably add a goby and/or a blenny to keep my sand looking good, just my 2 cents!

    Other than monitoring water parameters, just watch the tank... if you see fish kinda "bumping" into each other quite often, or perhaps fish keep avoiding one area because of another fish, or fish wandering along the glass (they want out), then ya, too many...

    How big are the tangs? That's going to be the number one deciding factor IMO. Two adult tangs in a 75 has you at capacity. That said, most people dont have adult tangs unless they spent a couple $100 per fish or have had them a good while.
