Can it be done ????

[goose777]

powder blue and and powder brown together in a 265 gl no other fish in the tank right now wondering if anyone has these 2 together ? also the tank has approx. 250 lbs of (large pieces) lr if that matters

if you put them in at the same time it should be ok.

shag have u ever personally tried this ?

 

[goose777]

i have seen videos on you tube with them in tanks the same size as mine and not even noticing each other last time i tried it in a 75 gl and it lasted about 60seconds before powder blue was pulled out. looked like 2 rabid rats in a wool sock if u know what i mean?

Trying it in a 75 is just insane. Neither of those fish belong in a 75 let alone both. But you already know how that turned out.

As far as the 265, is it the 7 foot version? Either way, you MIGHT get away with it if both fish are small, approximately the same size, and added together (after qt of course). It's not a gurantee so you'll have to keep your eye on it.

Not with powder blue and brown tanga. But I have a yellowbelly, mata, and large whiteface in my display(210). I also have two medium tenneti tangs in my frag tank for now

I wouldn't try it. Seaworld had a very large tank with multiples of both in it and they were all beat up and chasing each other.
