I'm looking for Stocking advice for a 120 gallon tank. I'm interested in having 2 herbivorous fish to pick at my rocks and help manage algae preventatively. My wife loves the look of yellow tangs and wants one for the tank. I've been looking at adding a blue eyed kole tang, but I want them to have sufficient room and avoid aggression as much as possible. I'm generating a stocking list before setting up the tank.

I'm open to any suggestions, stocking for the optimum well-being of my tank inhabitants is my top priority.

Well you may not want to put two tangs together it can be a little risky and tuff especially of the same body type. May also harder in smaller tanks.
You may want to look at a rabbitfish/foxface like a one spot instead, just much easier to do if you want two herbivores. If you did two tangs I would do them at the same time.

Also right now it is next to impossible to get a yellow tang unless you want to spend allot. Also koles are very hard to get. If you can even find them they are going 300.00 +
