I would suggest a freshwater tank then. I went away for 2 days and left my mom in charge of a sw tank and when I came back I was lucky to have only had a massive overfeeding. Either that or you just don't get a tank at all. Thats my opinion. Its hard for a non-hobbyist to suddenly take up a sw tank.
hes already got the tank..........if your going away i suggest not getting anything new but if your dad is keen to learn and knows everything you do about SW fish then a new fish would be ok 
90G is a good size tank aswell! any pictures?

he knows what to do...Ive been keeping tanks for like 5 years and he has been doing it with me for the whole time, he has a few tanks at work to.
plus I will be at home for a while still anyway so its no big deal to teach him a few things like dosing and stuff.
anyway...I got some corals from a guy a while back and they had bubble alge on them, and now they are kinda all over the place. I have tryed everthing, I even changed all my rock, but they still came back. The emprial crabs I got dont do anything. Are there any fish that could help with this problem?

If your leaving for college soon why would you really want to add in any new stock especially when you have an aggressive clarkii and someone who is new to SW to care for it?! I suggest you leave the clarkii in right now and show your dad how to care for it while your away, then when you come back and he has picked up the hobby and understands it better you two go out and pick out new fishes for the tank.
