2 triggers, when to add

[Cosmojo]

Hey all,
I'm working on starting up my 125, and trying to plan my fish while my nitrogen cycle goes.
Anyways I'm doing a powder blue tang and a purple tang and I know I should put those in at the same time in the later stages of the tank after my smaller fish are established (chromis, 2 clowns, bleenie, flame hawkfish) I also want to do a red tail trigger and a black trigger. I will get them both really small, when should I add them to my tank and should I put them in at the same time?

IMO you kinda have to decide weather you want the triggers or the tangs, mostly because in a 125 you are almost certin to have issues with 4 fish being 10"+. Tangs being ich magnets and triggers being notoriously nasty (red tails arent as bad). I would say that these 4 wouldnt make a good mix, not saying someone out there hasnt done it but generally probably isnt a good idea.

agree, tank is too small...

+ 2 . Too small for a powder blue regardless, but not enough room for 4 large fish
