will these tangs fight?

[Lynnmw1208]

I would like to have a yellow tang and a spotted bristletooth (Ctenochaetus truncatus) in a 125g tank. what are the chances that they'll fight with each other?

I think theyd be fine IMO you have enough space so there shouldt be any conflicts,you kinda gotta be careful when havin some of the same shaped tangs together but i had 3 in my 120 and never had a problem.

Do you suppose it's better if I add both of these last and together?

It is always better to add tangs last and if you plan on having more than one ALWAYS add them at the same time if at all possible. Try to get them about the same size as well.

I have a Spotted Kole, he is an absolutely beautiful fish. I have never been able to get a picture that reveals his beauty but in person he is stunning with subtle hues of color.

I agree on the points from above. Get them at the same time and then the same size. they should not fight at all with a tank that size. if you get one first, be prepared a for alot of tail slaping the first week or so but it will settle down in a few days.

most tangs will fight. those will not usually to the death.
