You only have 2 med. sized fish so it should be ok for a 90g with 50g sump. However, if it is a reef tank, the fewer fish, the better your corals will like it.

I've heard that Bellus Angels like to swim so you probably need a pretty big tank for those.

IMO, you are already pushing the limit with your current fish load. The CBB and the foxface will get pretty big over the next few years. As they grow, they will increase the bioload all on their own.

I agree with Bev, you are already pushing your limit.
