I have 7 (maybe 8) in my 90 (which is the tank I answered the poll on):
Tomini Tang
Linespot Flasher Wrasse
Filamented Flasher Wrasse
Yellowfin Flasher Wrasse
Ocellaris clown x 2
Geometric Pygmy Hawkfish
and maybe a Royal Gramma - I've seen him like 3 times since I upgraded from a 75

I have one Cinammon Clownfish in my 40. She tends to kill everything else.

I have 3 in my 65 (soon to be 4):
Lubbock's Fairy Wrasse
Longfin Fairy Wrasse
Yellow Tang
and a Melanarus Wrasse in QT.

2 sets of clowns.

I want to add quite a few more...
I'm thinking

Maybe 2 yellow tangs
And I would love a clown tang but I don't see my sailfin letting that happen.
Also would like a mandarin and a leopard wrasse

150 gallon FOWLER.

1 Porcupine Puffer
1 Harlequin Tusk
1 Dwarf Zebra Lion
1 Dwarf Golden Moray
1 Coinbearing Angler

The angler and eel don't take up much room at all and the lion just hangs around all day. I upgraded from a 75 to a 150 after 6 months. My porcupine was the first fish I bought and dang he grew fast!!

I really enjoy this tang and does a good job of keeping the frag tank clean. Got him about a year ago about 1-2" very skinny and near death nursed it back to health is now fat and happy. Wouldn't say they are any harder to keep than any other tang.

200g mixed reef with 33 fish, SPS, LPS, softies, lots of inverts and RBTA's.

Amazingly not that crowded because I generally prefer smaller fish (not nano small). The two tangs and the Malanurus wrasse are the biggest fish in the tank followed by the red banded Anthias and Bimaculatus Anthias. RBTA's did get out of hand for a while and sold off 9 leaving 5 which are already back to 7. Was going to get rid of all but keeping for now and may set up a clown tank. If nothing else they have proven to be a good source of discretionary funds (read as the stick fund lol)

2 Bimaculatus Anthias Pseudanthias bimaculatus
Carpenter's Flasher Wrasse Paracheilinus carpenteri
Cleaner Common Wrasse Labroides dimidiatus
Coral Beauty Angelfish Centropyge bispinosa
2 Exquisite Fairy Wrasse Cirrhilabrus exquisitus
Flame Angelfish Centropyge loriculus
Flameback Angelfish (African) Centropyge acanthops
Hoeven's Wrasse Halichoeres melanurus
Lawnmower Blenny Salarias fasciatus
2 Lyretail Anthias Pseudanthias squamipinnis
Multicolor Angelfish Centropyge multicolor
Multicolor Lubbock's Fairy Wrasse Cirrhilabrus lubbocki
Pink Margin Fairy Wrasse Cirrhilabrus rubrimarginatus
Potter's Angelfish Centropyge potteri
Purple Dottyback Pseudochromis porphyreus
Purple Tang Zebrasoma xanthurum
3 Red Belted Anthias Pseudanthias rubrizonatus
Red-Lined Wrasse Halichoeres biocellatus
4 Resplendent Anthias Pseudanthias pulcherrimus
Six Line Wrasse Pseudocheilinus hexataenia
2 True Percula Clownfish Amphiprion percula
Yellow Belly Regal Blue Tang Paracanthurus hepatus var.
Yellow Coris Wrasse Halichoeres chrysus
China Pearl Wrasse Anampses cuvier
