Yea sorry for my post(rant) not directed at anyone on here or on topic with the ops question.
To the op, I think a naso in a 75g is too much. While a few tangs is okay, ones that will get well over a foot long is not in that size tank.

I have a 175 bowfront with a show sizeblonde naso, large sailfin,blue hippo, yellow and purple tang thats 5 total. The first three have been together for years and came with the tank when i bought it. The yellow and purple I put in there recently. Honestly speaking it seems like they have plenty of room to swim are very healthy and seem happy, The problem is the yellow, purple and hippo like to pick on each other every so often. It doesnt stress them out too much because they seem to get over it quickly but its almost annoying to see how it goes from completely peaceful to a crazy maniac chase between the three in a few seconds flat. If i had the choice to do it over again I would have left the purple and yellow out.
I think you are lucky with the 4 now and if they seem peaceful and healthy don't mess it up with adding another. I have always had a problem with Powder browns and I will bet if you get one it gets ick quickly and dies, and could take out the other ones as well. My favorite fish are tangs pretty much any of them and when my tank crashed a few years back I let it sit with what survived and after do some reading I decided to go to a larger tank so I could have a lot of tangs. I had 6 in a 120 and they were fine for over a year then the crash. I don't think I could do it again in that small of a tank. I only have 3 in my 240 and it's 96in long and only plan on adding maybe 2 more.

So far I'm not having any problems with the tangs. I added the yellow tangs all at the same time, so their not fight or anything.

For real we are having this thread- sorry but your tank is overstocked as it is and considering adding more is really a bad idea. But since you asked for advice here it is.
Take a couple out and keep 1 tang perhaps two that's all. Eventually the situation will get out of control and the stress will cause some ich and so forth.
As far as what you do its totally up to you since ultimately you are buying the fish whether is the right thing to do or not.

Mat stay away from them books buddy they are corrupting your thought process! lol
