Mixing a yellow tang with a blue Hippo tang

[mach1john]

What kind of trouble am I looking at mixing these two? 75 gallon with a 20 gallon sump. Had the blue hippo for 2 months now.

Your not looking at any trouble. The 2 should be just fine together.

a blue hippo in a 75 is asking for all kinds of trouble.

Not true had a blue hippo with a yellow tang in a 75 for years never had a problem

x2 on the Blue Hippo. I had one in a 75 for 6 years and he was the most peaceful, good natured fish in the tank. He was the only tang though.

I think it's a hit or miss thing. Some times the blue tang can be aggressive.

I have both, and they never mess with each other.... But they are in a 125g.

If you do decide to get the yellow tang and they do fight, changing/moving the rock around will help, as they won't have an established territory.

+1 on this

I don't think there should be much aggression between the two. They do have different body types.

I also have both in a 75 gallon, no problems.

I have a yellow a blue and a sailfin tang in my 160 gal everyone gets along fine. I think you will not have any problems.

What kind of fish are easy for Oscar s to live with in the same tank

Personally, not a fan of putting an P. hepatus in a 4 foot long tank.

Could someone please explain to me why I do not want the bio wheels in my filter?

Marquel you need to do some serious reading and research. I read a ton daily on sw topics and I still feel "lost" at times. The good news is youve found a good place to do that research! (This site)

I literally just bought a hippo tang and added him to my 75 today with a yellow tang that has been in there for about 5 months. The yellow tang is hitting him with his fin, being a dick, but he is slowly coming to his senses.

Thanks for responding chiblackhawks. Much appreciated
