I wouldnt necessarily think so...the only that might outgrow the tank is the clown tang.....I love the powder blue and the Achilles.

The only challenge will be as they grow the Clown or Powder Blue may get overly territorial. Just their nature. 210 gallons is the minmum for those as adults.

Very nice looking tank!

Mark,
You did a great job setting up that system. It looks great! Glad to see you went with lifereef equipment, I can't say enough good things about their skimmers. Keep postin the pics!

jim, thanks I've been extremely pleased with lifereef filter system I would highly recommend it to anybody.
