What order should I add them?"

The Dog Face Puffer is going to have to be 1st since I already have him....
-Voltains Lionfish
-Yellow Tang & Regal Tang (at same time?)
-Snowflake Eel

You would eventually need a 220 for all of those full grown.

yellow tangs like to school as well



Are you looking to keep these in the 90 gallon for a long time? or plan to upgrade?

I don't have to have the tangs...it was just an idea but I would like to have the lion, puffer and eel and maybe something else. I think these are all compatible:


Lionfish
Large Angels
Anglers
Boxfish/ Trunkfish
Eels
Groupers
Puffers
Rabbitfish
Sea Bass
Snappers
Tangs/ Surgeonfishes
 
Here are some ideas.........

*Voltains Lionfish
Yellow Tang & Regal Tang
*Snowflake Eel
*Dog Face Puffer
Foxface Rabbitfish
*Striated Angler
Blue Spotted Boxfish
Porcupine Puffer or Spiny Box Puffer
Angelfish . . .
Tangs . . .

*The fish I really want
 
The Puffer will outgrow your 90 gallon. The lion can grow to the size basketball and is best suited in a 125. 90 gallons have the same foot print as the 75, so basically your at the minimum tank size for each fish individually. But now you want 2-3 more fish, your going to have to upgrade or go with some other choices.


Snowflake eel
Fuzzy dwarf or smaller lion fish
toby pufferfish

that would be good in your 90 gallon. Anglers are never good with any other fish, they need a tank to them selfs. With the dog face you already have you should be purchasing a 125, thats his minimum tank size for an adult puffer :(

I feel like I am back to square one again. Can I have corals with my dogface puffer or will he eat them?
 
He will eat them.
 
Now that I think about it, Canuck is right as usual :)......if I was in your situation I would sell the 90 and use it to pay some of the 125 or even a larger tank.....180. The 180 you may get away with the eel, lion, puffer and maybe a tang or two.....

I am selling the 90 for a 140 because I found a great deal on a 140.
