Blue Tang Aggressive

[denissepr]

Hi everyone, I have a blue tang that its been on the fishtank since we got it. He is very aggressive towards new fish, when we got him we got two of them and he killed the other one, now were to the point that if we buy fish, he lets the ones that he wants and the ones that he don't like he kills. Have anyone had this problem? I know this has to something to do with the color too. Thanks:uhoh2:

Hepatus are known to be aggressive. A lot of it depends upon tank size and if you're adding other tangs.

Use an acclimation box, and tape a mirror to the side of the tank to distract him

Well, not just tangs. An acclimation box may help if the tank is sufficiently long.
