You planning on any more tangs ???? If so you should try and add all tangs at ones, If you add one and then add another later of the same shape you might have some issues with them fighting.

I hate to break it to you, but 190 litres (which is about 50 gallons) isn't enough room for any tang.
I would stick to clown fish. :)

Is your tank thoroughly cycled?

If it's cycled there's no reason to wait.

O Wow 190 L Sorry yeah Erin is right, that is to small for any Tang, I tought it was 190 gl, But How do you know your cycle is over have you ben testing ??? How long since initial set up ??? and did your amonia, nitrites and nitrates all spike and then go down ????
If you tested and all this has already happen then you should be safe to add 2 Clowns. Make sure you wait atleast a month before adding any more fish.
As far as your cleaning crew goes. Have you ben feeding them ??? Being as there is no fish in there to feed and the tank is not that old you might not have a good food sores for them yet. You might want to add algea waffers or something like that for them to grub on.

First, I'm going to ignore every grammatical error here.
Second of all... feeding a clean up crew (IMO) is pointless. They're there to clean. They will find things to eat.

Yeah my spelling and grammer suck. O Well !!!! LOL.
But being that the tank is new, I Would defenetly see a reason for feeding them. Unless your tank is getting a grip of light and algea grownth. But with no fish to feed that means if the cycle went good your perameters should be at Zero now meaning algea should have a hard time growing. Since your not feeding fish there really aint no detriuse for them to feed on. So IMO i would feed them atleast one Algea waffer or so ones every 3 days just to make sure they dont starve. But its all on you !!!!

Not aiming this post at you, but to posts with bad grammar and spelling in general.
If a post can't be read and understood, then it will have a lower chance of
A) Getting read
B) Getting answered
C) Getting a correct answer
Clear and concise communication is key to getting ideas across, avoiding miscommunication, and solving problems.
I suggest installing a browser such as Firefox that has spell check built in. If you spell something wrong, it shows it with a red squiggly line. It helps me spell things correctly and I am horrible at it.
Getting back on topic, this is why I always add one fish first before adding a clean up crew. However, if the tank is cycled, there is plenty of food in there for a few members of the CUC.

Anytime.

That said, +1 Erin...your tank's too small for a yellow tang. The minimum for any sort of tang would be 70.
