is this two many tangs

[acasp4]

for my new 230gal i want to put in theses tangs but im wondering if its to many, the tank is 72x30x24

3- yellow tangs
1-purple tang
1. blond naso tang
1- achilles tang
1-blue hippo tang

my biggest concern is the yellows and purple tang but iv heard from a few people that in that combination they'll get along. what do y'all think?

Maybe if you add them at the same time But might be pushing it with naso and Achilles

IMO and I always push my load lol

whoops i forgot the chevron tang as well.

And yes im planing on adding them all at the same time and all except the blue hippo and achilles will be youngsters 2-3 inches.

I'd say yes too many. Also http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1946079 has the minimum tank sizes for tangs. Blue and Achilles you're cutting it close, Naso you're way off.

Sorry you're good on the Achilles, thought it was 240.

Usually if you have to ask then yes. But I think you might be okay if you can find a way to leave the rock in the middle of the tank so they can swim uninterrupted across the back and the front of the tank kinda like a racetrack....

Also, if you haven't already do a bunch of research on the Achilles... one of the harder tangs to keep, need a ton of flow, etc....

Purple/Yellow i don't think will work.
