Yellow and Kole Tang

[GPhiAce]

I have a 120g (currently no livestock). I would like to have a Kole tang and a yellow tang. Do anyone have experience with these two tangs and can anyone tell me if these two species are friendly towards each other? Although I have experience with other fish, these will be my first tangs. any suggestions would be nice.

I have a purple and yellow tang in a 120. I introduced them at the same time. A little chasing from the yellow tang during feeding time but nothing major.

A yellow and kole should get along well. Maybe expect a little flashing when first introduced. Their contrast will look very good when they swim together. I love kole and yellow tangs.

i currently have a kole tang with a blonde naso in my setup. the naso usually gets along with the kole but sometimes pushes his weight to show whos boss. you should have any problems with the kole tang. they are really passive fish.

I have a Kole and a yellow in my 100 and they spend most of the day hanging out together. The Kole was in the tank a few months before the yellow. Never had any issues at all. The yellow actually follows the kole around like a little brother. Fun to watch, makes my wife laugh.

Kole and yellows get along, well. Especially if they are introduced at the same time. @realreef, purple tangs are fairly aggressive zebrasomas and tend to be agnostic towards other tangs unless they are a) introduced at the same time, or b) large tank.

Thanks for the input. They will be here next week. How often do you feed your tangs???
