thanks for the reply

iam looking at a little bigger close to 1000g range

idealy i want 12ft x 4ft x 3 ft but the wife is saying a 10ft x 3ft x30inch... maybe its time to buy her something expensive she wants lol

Wow! That is quite a list- $$$$$$. For all those fish, I think you would be better with the 12x4 tank. If you are going to drop the money for the fish, spend the extra for a bigger tank.
Would do some more research regarding keeping multiple angels together. If you can get all them, it would probably be best to add them all at the same time.
I would skip the moorish idol too. I'm sure you know it's hit or miss with them.

i previously had multiple angels in the same tank for about 3 years... lost the entire tank due to a freak record breaking ice storm several years ago,

the moorish idol is currently in my 210g and has been for over 1.5 years..along with the puffer(new), powder blue and purple tang

iam looking for a new house at this moment and hoping to be in a new house by mid summer at the latest and i need to finalize my tank size to find a house to accomidate the tank

That's insane! I've never even seen one make it out of a fishstore before croaking. Congrats. I'd like to see some pics of these guys.
