What size tank? I have mixed other tangs with them with mixed results, depending on size of tank and size of fish.

I don't know if the two species would get along, but I always thought it would be interesting to have both a mimic tang and the angelfish species it "mimics" in the same display.

Yes it can be done, the problem is the mimic will turn to adult colors pretty soon, and will not longer look like the Angel.

Mimic tangs only mimic Angels as Juveniles.
