any thoughts or experience on this? got a pbt, sailfin, yellow and kole in a 160g tank. and that is the pecking order with pbt being top boss. the 4 have been in there since the beginning -about 5 years. if I added a magnificient foxface to the mix, is it doomed? been reading a lot of posts and 50% say no; that the FF can hold its ground with aggressive tangs.. the other half say the tangs will attack and kill, esp yellow tang on yellow foxfaces because similar color, but I am interested in a magnificient.

would love to hear those who have tried this so i can learn

thank you!

Sailfin is probably too big to be bothered with it, but PB and Yellow probably will give it trouble for a few days to a week given the size of the tank. Suggest to use an acclimation box for two days before releasing it in the dark. Good thing about foxface is that they are quite disease tolerant & easy to feed.
