Overstocked?

Hey guys I have a 75g tank with the following fish:

1 Fox Face
1 Blue Regal Tang
4 Four Stripe Damsels
1 Yellow Damsel
2 False Clowns

Am I done as far as adding fish or can I add a few more?
If so any recommendations?

You might want to post in general discussion to catch the attention of someone. I don't know the rule inches of ADULT size/ per gallon for salt water fish,,,so far you have about 44" of expected adult sizes. Hope this helped.

The rules that fresh water folk follow for stocking a tank don't apply to SW. But I can't say if you're good to go or can add more...at least not with any authority. The fox face and tang can get pretty big but the other ones don't get more than a few inches, maybe 4.

I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will stop on by.

Id seriously get rid of the damsels.... damsels get more aggressive as they get older.. and probably end up killing/harrasing your other fish.
yellow damsels arent as aggressive, so id keep that.
then, with the 4 other damsels removed, youll have room for atleast 5 more fish
