What is a good anglefish? one that will eat and get along with a yellow tang, a naso, a blue tang and two clowns had a rock beauty and liked it but very hard to keep
 
120 gallons no live rock at this time but willing to get it if nessecery. The tank has been cycled for two months. There is 2 clowns, 1 yellow tang, 1 blue tang, 1 naso(small) 2 cleaning shrimp and 4 turbo snails in at this time.
 
For both tangs and angels, live rock is best. It provides them with a in tank buffet to graze on a supplement nutrition. With that many fish, I likely wouldn't add anything. Might be small fish now, but they won't stay that way. In my 120, I have 1 damsel, 1 bicolor angel, and 1 yellow tang. That's it for fish. With 3 tangs, you're going to be pretty crowded once they hit maturity and start staking out territory.
 
We thought about that right now we are looking for a 180 or larger or we might even get one made to fit the space we have.
 
Then wait until you have the bigger tank to get more fish. Quite honestly, I've seen more tanks seriously overstocked because people plan on getting bigger tanks, and then something happens and they don't. The fish will still be available when you get the bigger tank, and you won't have to worry about stunting or crowding concerns right now.
 
Flame angel would be a good choice; they don't get nearly as large as some of the others.

I once had a coral beauty (cytropyge bispinosus) and it was really a great fish. Kept him for 2 years and sold him back to the lfs when i moved. Never had a problem with him and got along with all the other fish in the tank. Highly recommended
 
i think you might be better off if you waited you dont want to press your luck anymore then you have
good luck though those are some nice fish
