I'd skip the pseudochromis too. The cardinals don't like agressive tankmates and the pseudochromis deffinitly can be aggressive. I have a purple pseudochromis in my 50 gallon tank, and he doesn't take any crap from the tank bully, a domino damsel that is ten times his size.

I also agree about the pseudochromis. Instead of the tang how about a flame angel - great starter fish, hardy, colorful and stay small for a 75g.

I would add more flow if you are going to have sps. I was running 2 fluval 204s my sump and 3 power heads and I still wanted more flow. Also are you going DSB or just a normal sand bed you might want to cut some sand and add some LR. Just my two cents.

I too would scrap either one of the
Bicolor Pseudochromis Royal Gramma Basslet I'd replace it with a dwarf angel of some sort and a small yellow or regal tang.

Ok, then i'll do.....
Pair of Banggai Cardinalfish 1 Royal Gramma Basslet Pair of Ocellaris Clownfish 1 Sailfin/Algae Blenny 1 Powder Blue Tang As for the tang, i'll be giving him to a friend as he grows large. I really like this fish. As for flame angels, do they not pick at corals?? Overal though, what do yo guys think about my stocking levels. Would you say im heavily stocked or moderately. Thanks!

Personally I think those creatures will do fine in that tank. I have 8 fish in my 65 gallon but only one largish fish- regal tang.
As for the dwarf angels, they are hit and miss. I've had flame angels and presently a bi-colored angel and none have ever disturbed my corals.

The powder blue is one of the hardest tangs to care for as they are very disease prone. If you are new to the hobby I would suggest a hardier and smaller tang or wait a while until you get more experience and your tank matures.
As for the Flame Angel, I know 2 other reefers that had to remove them due to nipping. Like most dwarf angels, it is 50/50. In my opinion you are at a safe-high side for fish load. Most of the fish you have in your list don't really swim around too much and will establish territories so ensure you have enough hiding places and rock.
