That is going to be impossible to answer because it all depends on what fish you're talking about. Try giving a centerpiece or few favorites and then asking what might work with it.

There really isn't a maximum amount of fish. Fish will vary and effect your bio-load differently. Best way to find out if your stocking list is ok is to post it here with your tank info.

Yea, you're stocking list is still way too big. First off, a 120 gallon tank is way too small for any large angel. The dwarf angel will be fine as long as you watch him around the corals. As for the tangs, Pick one or two at he VERY maximum. I have no real experience with mixing gobies so can't imput there. Before you add any fish to your tank I would recommend doing some research first to prevent an accident.

Didn't you post this in another thread? I remember some advice being given on some of the fish in a reef system as well as keeping things like cleaner wrasses which many feel should be left in the ocean.

Just a suggestion but you might try bumping the original thread instead next time. It is helpful for those giving help to see what has already been said.
