Two Adult Tangs....

Dori and Old Yella, Have had for a year with monster French angel. Just moved Frenchie 2 months ago, have had Achillies (small to med in size) in QT for about 3 months. I got a 55 waiting for him, just wondering if yu,all think the other tangs will bother him? DT tank is 125, 175LR lots of caves for shelter assorted beginner corals and a few small reef save fish. Thanks.

Your yellow is probably pretty established if he's been in there for a year. He might harrass the Achilles. BUT......Achilles can be pretty mean themselves so he's more than capable of defending himself. Just keep an eye on him. Being as delicate as they are, they don't need any added stress.

Your right! Old Yella bothered him for about an hour, now all swimming togher, so far so good. Thanks1

My powder blue terrorized my foxface for the first day he was in there. I really thought he was gonna kill him. It was because he saw him as a competitor for food and a threat. Now they're inseperable. Just keep an eye on them for the first week or so.

Been A few hours, all eating together, couple of tail wags, Achillies dont seem to treatened by the bully. I didnt mention that I had a carpenter wrasse in QT with the Achillies and added both of them. So old yella doesnt know who to chase so he justs give up. Thanks for your input Ill let you know how it goes.

When I turned the light off last night thought Old Yella was gonna kill him for sure, biteing him like crazy! Needless to say Old Yella now in 55 for a little while. I thought I was gonna have a hard time getting him out but he wasnt even scared of the net, first shot right in he went. I should have known that he wouldnt be scared cause he,s not scared of the feeding stick I use.
