Asking for Trouble!

[ca1ore]

Problem with having a big tank again, is the possibility of fish that were not practical before ....

I already have a Hippo, Yellow and Purple in my display, and a Desjardini Sailfin in CP in quarantine. Would like to add either a Kole of a Chevron and an Achilles in due course. Doable in a 265, or asking for trouble?

Could be doable but are there going to be other fish in the tank with them?

Oh, plenty of other fish, but it's the tangs getting along that worries me.

The biggest issue I see is the yellow, purple and sailfin because they are all from the zebrasoma family and the yellow and purple are supposedly aggressive. I have not kept either so i have no first hand experience. Also the chevron and kole are from the same family but they are less aggressive and stay smaller so I wouldn't be as worried with them. Im not an expert by any means but i would recommend either choosing 2 out of the 3 from the zebrasoma and choosing either the chevron or kole.
