Just try to split them up in two groups, I would not add 6 fish at once, probably 3-4 only.

Don't know anything about the hogfish or soldierfish.

I don't know about the hog fish and soldier fish but the rest should be fine with corals

I believe the hogfish will be okay but it might attack some small shrimp and maybe even hermits. you might want to keep an eye on him. The solider will be fine for awhile. When he gets bigger he may become beligerent toward the other fish and may stress out the other tank inhabitants. See if you can find this book in your dealers store or online it's called reef fish. It only has reef safe fish or simi safe reef fish. It has a lot of fish in that book. I think it has over 500 fish.

Hi Jena nice list! I had a yellow eye tang and loved him. He was very shy at first but after a cpl of weeks was always out. We named him lawn mower all he did was eat algae all day!

i would nix the volitan and go with either a radiata or antennata. they are smaller and would not outgrow the 90 as quickly. a full grown volitan would fill the entire 90.
