How many fish in a 50?? :)

[Aquattro]

Here's my list so far

sailfin tang
powder blue tang
2 x yellow tang
emporer angel
3 x anthias
3x clown
asst damsel
2x chromis
pesky goby

Ok, a bit overstocked. No skimmer, so what do ya think would be a good water change schedule?

*** This is a temp holding system for 3 weeks

Brad, you'll be ok, just tell them that you thought the rule of thumb was 1 Tang per Gallon of Water Volume. You're ONLY going to have 5, so you're very safe with 1 Tang per 10 Gallons.

I think they'll be fine for a few weeks, however I'd suggest 25% WC's every 2-3 days with that kind of bio-load.

The aggression may be the bigger concern in such tight quarters for the Tangs. I'd suggest feeding a bit more Nori at opposite sides of the tank, so they're not all going to the same spot competing for food.

Sorry for off the topic question. But why is he "pesky"? Am planning to get a couple of these for my tanks, because of their sand cleaning habits. I don't have sugar sand.

I have a yellow faced sleeper Goby and he is always moving my crushed coral around the tank, also spits stuff over my leathers and makes a mess. I was going to get rid of him but he keeps the bottom fresh and clean looking as well as trying to catch him would not be easy, so he wins.
