tangs

[raskasio82]

Hellow everyone

I have bought loads of tangs. My tank is about 1000liters uk. Will this cause problems such as fighting between them?

These are the ones

Chevron tang
Achielles
Gem tang
Naso elegance
Yellow tang
Purple tang
Regal tang

Oh boy! Is this a joke?

Even in a big tank, that's a lot of fish to consider introducing at the same time. Do you intend to QT them all first? If not, fighting is likely to be the least of your problems.

Back in this thread, you seemed to understand that your tank wasn't big enough for two tangs.

So...you add seven?

This is just a bad idea. Please rethink. Tooooo many tangs for this size aquarium.

I would add a sohal tang, clown tang, and an undulated trigger to that list, it's fine

If this is the same tank as here: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2359184 then definitely not. You need more swimming space. The size of the aquarium is not the only factor. Half of that tank is occupied by rock, and the tank is tall vs long, which is never a good idea for a fish like a tang. Tangs are easily stressed so aside from the significant bio load which will crash your system, that many fish together in such a small swimming space will spell disaster. Please don't shrug all of these comments off. You will waste your money, but more importantly kill those poor animals.

I deeply agree with everything stated above so I will just simply say don't do it.

Don't feed the troll

 

[AuburnTiger1]

Ok after seeing the link from BrianD this is definitely a troll c'mon man don't be like that.

 

[ca1ore]

Troll or not, if I were introducing a Gem Tang into my tank I would remove every large fish (certainly any resident Tangs) first!

 

[footballdude2k3]

Gem tangs are cheap, just buy 5 and hope one of them works out.

 

[fishhuman]

No I would get 20 gem tangs and then a few wrought iron butterfly's to keep them company but then you would have to have a few peppermint angels to keep variety and, what's a tank with out like 30 birbonius anthias? That was sarcasm, really don't get the fish you plan on getting BAD IDEA
