2 many tangs?

[pete123]

I needed to transfer from one tank to another the result is:

In my 240 I currrently have:

1- Salifin Tang
1 -Naso
2 Blues

The Sailfin and the naso seem to respect each other, the blues hide. Over time will they adjust?

Or do I have a big problem?

Thanks

I am assuming that that is an 8ft tank, correct? If so, then I would reduce the load by one tang...namely the Naso lituratus.

Your sig says a 240 reef in progress.
If this is the case you are in than I would add all 4 at the same time. I think you will be fine.
All of the tangs listed are the more peaceful tangs.

I have chocolate, sailfin, PBT, 2 purples and a hippo in my 210 (7 foot). None of them are wusses, but not of them are agressive either. Mine all kind of hang out together and don't do much swimming other than to all cruise around together.

Here is a really poor picture of them all. They like to hang with the passer too. The trigger hangs with them sometimes, but he likes to spit sand on his own sometimes too.

Make sure and give them plenty of food along with the swimming room and hiding places. Mine all got used to each other after about a day. They don't even mind new additions. I think that feeding them and meeting that need is as important as tank room. They need to be fed enough to grow 1-2" per year.
