Tank stocking Time for a Tang?

Greetings, I have a 125 gallon SW tank that is 6 feet long with a deep sand bed and about 120lbs of live rock. The only fish are a 2.5″ Yellow Watchman Goby, a 4.5″ Finespotted Fairy Wrasse, and a 2.5″ Carpenter’s Flasher Wrasse. The tank kind of looks deserted, but at the same time, I don’t want to overcrowd the fish. A small handful of snails and hermits make up the rest of the livestock. I was thinking of adding an Ornate Wrasse (H. ornatissimus), Whipfin Fairy Wrasse (C. filamentosus), Long Fin Fairy Wrasse (C. rubriventralis), and a Hepatus Tang. Is there enough space for these fish to live comfortably at adult size, or should I forget about the Tang? Would these fish get along? No other fish will be added afterwards. -Victor
