need stocking and compatibility advice

[td1415]

I'm looking at building a Hawaiian-themed FOWLR tank with these fish:

rectangular trigger
dragon wrasse
yellow tang
raccoon butterfly

Plus a blue hippo tang, which I already own.

Do you guys think these fish are compatible? How big a tank will I need?

Thanks in advance for the advice!

anyone??

I would say to be comfortable long term, go with a 125. The trigger will get large and the hippo will as well.

Minimum 125 - Bigger would be better in this situation...

the dragon wrasse will also get big. do read up on tihs one. they are very cool fish, but they get big, and are called "rock movers" for a good reason.

I think I'd go180 minimum, even if you replace the dragon wrasse with another fish.
