My tank is 4ft by 2ft wide and 16 inches tall, 73 gallon total system volume is 100 gallons. Currently in there I have:
Pair of clowns
Royal gramma
Pin tail fairy wrasse
Mccoskers flasher wrasse
Pair of flame hawks
One spot foxface
Red lined wrasse

in qt I have:
Exquisite fairy wrasse
Radiant wrasse

so I will have 11 fish in total and want to add a tang, would it be ok in there? I was looking at the white tail bristletooth and read mixed reviews on them if their peaceful or agressive. I could sell the exquisite wrasse but I don’t think that would make much of a difference. Anyone think this would be ok or should I not get the tang? Currently there’s no aggression going on, except for my royal gramma bugging my clowns at night time. I’ve never had a tang before so not sure how they act

A small one (1) would be ok. I love mine - he gets along great and is fairly oblivious to everything (other than occasionally toppling over my favorite coral).
Do you mean as in I’d have to rehome once it grows up? Or just get a baby one and let it grow

Nope, as the only tang it should be fine. The bristletooth are on the smaller size when full grown.
