how big is it right now ? if its somewhere around 4" your 135 will be fine . max length is around 12" so you can expect it to stay a little smaller in an aquarium . depending on your feeding habits your looking atleast 3 yrs before it gets close to the 10" mark .
btw - i'm jealous ! i love those fish ! you need to take a pic with out so much purple as these fish really stand out with their natural white coloring . good luck .

I believe that's the Acanthurus tennenti. They get to about a foot in length, but need a fair amount of swimming room. I wouldnt recommend them for something smaller than 6', but longer would be better. Here's a couple links on them.
