If done in the proper order....most aggressive last. Notice in the list of tangs I have there are none that are "real" aggressive, the koi tang and the purple tang are the most aggressive because they are the same (zebrosoma) but the koi is much bigger than the purple so it is not a problem. I did'nt add them in any special order, I just put them in as I got them. If you get some "real" aggressive tangs (clown, sohal, etc) then you might want to think about in what order they will go in. Although I don't think it is as big of a deal as most people make it out to be....just my .02

I agree. I have a Sohal, but he is a medium size, and not bigger then the rest of hte fish. I would never get a Clown, every one I see wants to fight. They are very agressive! In my old tank I had a Powder Blue, Sohal, Sailfin, and a Lavender. My biggest mistake was making the Sohal the biggest fish. He dominated the tank, but after a awhile the pecking order was established and the other tangs knew where they could and couldn't go. So, its all about what mix you get, what sizes you get, and the order at which you add them. But, I can speak from experience, keeping them fed ALOT will help out with aggresion.... In the end, each fish has its own personality!

Talk about personality...I hve a blue eye kole that hasn't come out of the rockwork for more than 30 seconds in the past two weeks. Then last night I sneak up on the reef and there he is out-and-about. When he realized I was watching he darted into the rocks, but then later I found him out again like he was just "one of the boys" so I guess it is finally coming out of his "shell". Such a beautiful fish and I thought I might never see it!
