You should have plenty of room in your 75 that contains only six fish. I had mine in a 10 gallon tank for awhile. I am very sorry I took mine back to the LFS. It was in my early reefkeeping days when I wanted some shrimp. To this day I am still kicking my behind. If I ever see one at a reasonable price I will get it.
Stop kicking your behind. If you had a angel in a ten gallon you did the fish a favour by returning it to the LFS.
