Yeah that should be plenty of lighting. I'm running 4x54w T-5 (216w) on my 90gal. which is 24" deep. No problem keeping RBTA's. I do feed maybe once every other month some shrimp.

You should be okay to keep different BTA's together. I've seen other people on here do it with no problems. Not to sure on the tangs, might be to small of a tank. I would only keep 2 clowns in a 92 gal. tank. Unless you introduce all 4 of them (babies) at the same time. But you still take a chance at that. Chromis should be ok.

Ok tank you so much I think I will get the four clowns as babies and then give them their own anemone and I have had the tangs before the tank at it's widest point is almost 5 feet long

A tank full of anemones and a mandarin do not mix -- the mandarin would become lunch at some point.

4 clowns, even if purchased as "babies" will become 2 in time. A pair will form and they will not take kindly to the other clowns in the tank.

She has commented that that isn't the norm, and even told another person who wanted to attempt 4 that it was a bad idea.
