Me and my partner have had the tank for about 4 months now it came with a blue regal tang and a clownfish. We thought the clownfish needed a new friend so bought a smaller common clownfish (both same species) the clownfish get on fine twitching and always together! :)
However the blue tang keeps following the bigger clownfish and rubbing itself up against the rocks. I have noticed the blue regal tang has pecked both clownfish on their back fins. I don't know what to do?! I think we going to take the blue regal tang to a fish shop we go as we know they can grown to 2ft in size :strange:
I just want to get in there and tell that blue regal tang off lol!
 
What size tank? The rubbing against the rocks could be a sign of ick, any spots that look like little grains of salt on the fish?
 
I agree, take a really close look at the tang, if he is rubbing against the rock there is something irritating his sink, I use a flash light and try adding some food to get his attention so that you can really see his body..sometimes the spots are hard to see..
