For cheap rock I would read for sale posts hear. There is always someone selling it here for cheap. For a sand sifter I would go with a orange spotted goby . They do a great job and don't go into the water collum while filtering the sand through there gills and cover your corals like the yellow headed goby.

For tangs their are a few I'm aware of that can go into a 70 gallon tanks such as kole scops and convict tangs.

I have a 65 gallon tank and I've had a regal tang in it for over two years now. Regals are amoung some of the smaller tangs you can get, I would suggest sticking with the smaller variety in a 65 gallon, and buy it young so that it adjusts to the tank size better.

I also have a bi-color angel fish which is a dwarf as well. A gold striped maroon clown, yellow watchman goby and a lawnmower blennie make up the rest of the tanks inhabitants. Hope this helps.
