need some input on stocking my 100 gallon mixed reef

[justslothy]

I already got this list checked out in the "new to the hobby" forum on that thread, but i just wanted some more help on finalizing my stocking list (thank you to snorvich for helping me out btw). this is what I've got so far to go in my (LxWxH) 72"x18"x19" 100 gallon aquarium:

1 yellow tang
2 tank raised ocellaris clownfish
2 tank raised bangaii cardinals
1 kole tang
1 firefish goby
1 green mandarin
a few reef safe wrasses
1 green/bicolour chromis
1 diamond watchman goby
1 royal gramma

Now my main concern is if i could keep the yellow tang and kole tang together in this tank. Being a 6 foot tank do you think it would give them enough room to swim around without any issues with aggression? I would also introduce them together to avoid any problems. Feel free to make any changes to the list by adding/removing fish you'd think would go well in this tank. Keep in mind i plan on this being a mixed reef. Thanks!

I think both of your tangs will be fine together, the length of your tank really helps. The rest of your list looks good too.

With the six foot length they will be just fine together. Wait on your pod population for the mandarin. Everything else is good though.

are there any certain wrasses or substitutes you guys would recommend? I was thinking maybe just a fairy wrasse and sixline or a cleaner wrasse? are there any types that dont eat a whole lot of pods so there wont be any problems with the mandarin? or could i ditch the wrasses and get a mandarin pair?

Stick with Fairy and Flasher Wrasses in that case. They won't compete for pods at all. Stay away from the Sixline (and all others in that genus); they can become terrors, especially against other Wrasses. Also I would personally avoid cleaner Wrasses. Better left in the ocean IMO.

Almost exactly the same stocking plan in my 135 except I wanted a couple blenny as well.

That list looks pretty good. If I were you I would put the tangs at the same time.
