how many tangs?

[rkehockey16]

how many tangs could go into a 125.
i was wanting a achilles, naso, and PB

I would limit it to 1 in a 125.... but that's just me.

Why you ask?

Naso tang itself will get to be over 12" long

Go for 2 tangs (max) to start with - to "test the water". I have a yellow tang and a PB in my 350 litre tank. They are the best of mates and get on really well. From what i have seen and the advice i have been given, you reduce the problems associated with mixing tangs if they are all different colours and shapes. The tangs you have suggested are quite similar. Again from advice and what i have seen, Nasa tangs are one of the least aggressive tangs and should not cause a problem to others. Another bit of advice i have come along is to keep all your tangs of similar size to reduce the possibility of bullying. PB can also be prone to ICH (due to them being easily stressed), however, i have not experienced any problems so far - fingers crossed.
Finally - best add them together to stop bullying.

I have a Purple, Scopas, Naso and Powder Blue, in my 125 but I got them seperately, 1 per month, the purple thinks he is the boss for the first couple of days, but now they are fine, I did it wrong after reading some things that he should have been last. but live and learn.

Achilles have a very low sucess rate.

Depends on which tang. Yellow, kole, ect maybe two.

Naso==A 125 is too small.

Achilles== One, but it is not a hardy tang.
