I recently purchased a Kole's Tang. I know if you want more then 1 you go to 3. Down the road can I add 2 more tangs? Like a Flame Fin? with a circular shaped tang? I have a 120g tank.. 48" long 32" high lots of rocks and caves.

thanks
 
In a 4ft tank you cannot do more than 1 tang. There just isn't enough space for them to each have their own territory. If you have a 125 or 150 you can do two tangs. A 180 would be able to handle three tangs. So wait until you upgrade your tank, if you ever do, to get a second and third tang(if the tank permits).
 
If you have your heart set on adding another one, it can be done but I would do it carefully since you already have one established. A mimic tang would be a good candidate. Then again, I'm a lot more adventurous with stocking than most people on here.

nsmith_mma What is the fish in your avatar? It is beautiful.
 
It's a purple tang (zebrasoma xanthurum). It is for sure my favorite of the tangs I can even hope to keep at this time, second only to the achilles tang for my overall favorite.
