Tangs in 125 gallon

[zachk]

I'm setting up a 125 gallon and was wondering if a Purple, Mimic, and Tomini would work in this size tank longterm? If not, would the Purple and Mimic be fine? Other likely inhabitants would be a Cherub Angel, Rabbitfish, (2) Orange Skunk Clownfish, and a Yellow-headed Wrasse.

Should be fine due the smaller size of the purple and tomini. However you probably have to change alot of water often due to the high bioload.

I was definitely counting on that!!

Is there another Centropyge Angelfish that could be added to this tank with the Cherub. The Cherub I have is a bada$$.

3 tangs should be fine

I'd pick one tang, two max if you want to get rid of the rabbitfish. I have a kole, mag. foxface and cherub in my 135 and they are all nipping at the rocks type fish in each others way all day long, works but all are pretty aggressive, maybe better if you can add them together.

I think I'll just go with the 2 tangs to be safe.

Could 3-5 Lyretail Anthias hold their own with a Cherub Angel? The Cherub bullied a trio of Bartlett Anthias to death about a year ago. I'd like to have some kind of planktivore in there that won't be totally intimidated by the Cherub.
