Default Angelfisholic needs help !!!

I only have a standard 75 gallon tank but I alredy housed 5 Angelfish plus another 10 different species. Here are the list of Angelfish I have :
1) Lemonpeel
2) Flame
3) Coral Beauty
4) Potter (just pick up last night)
5) Bicolor (also just pick up last night)

I was just thinking to buy another Cherub, Keyhole and Flameback whenever I have a chance to get all 3 at the same time. I know the list won't stop here, and I know I need at least a 120 gallon tank to feed my Angelfish addiction. Does anybody here have a small tank like mine but houses too many Angels like me ? I don't mind if they want to nip my sps corals, I enjoy to have these fish more than corals.

No, they actually really get along very well and play together with the last 2 fish I bought last night. I think if I buy some more I won't have a problem about fighting, I am more worried about too much crowding in a small tank. I can sell other fish if I need to.

Well i understand 3 with 75 gallon is pushing limit already. And now you just add 2 more, I hope you got some luck that they won't start fighting in couple months. Then you can try to add more i guess if your tank system can handle bio load. There are always some exceptions in hobby i guess

I have learned how to introduce angelfish without any problem, I am more worried about bio load as you say.
