Can I keep a kole tang and a yellow tang together?

I will be moving them into a 125 soon, will they fight or can one keep these together? Thanks

I think that they will do okay together, but you might want ad them at the same time.

i had 2 together for a bout 2 years before i tore the tank down and they got along great

i had more probs with my yellow and hippo

I had no problems with mine, when I had the 2....but all tangs have different personalities.
One of my buddy's yellow is a straight up bully & fights with all fish.
That's a nice size new home, they're getting......so they'll have plenty of room to ignore each other.
They might even hang out & swim together as mine did.

I have a friend that has two yellow , and two purple tangs in the same tank, and they seem to get along fine. He keeps them fed regularly, and they have been together for over a year.

No problems with a blue tang (P. Hepatus) and kole together for the last 2 years.

Recent problems between the blue tang and a sailfin tang led to the last one being returned to the LFS.

In my experience, both the blue and the kole are fairly mellow, but at the same time neither will tolerate any BS from the other fish and will stand their ground.

my yellow tang, bullied 1 kole to death, got another kole and got rid of the yellow.
of course the yellow had 7 months prior as only fish..
I had them in a 150g
