Great looking tank! Have you had any issues with aggression between the tangs? Were they all added at once?

THanks everyone for the nice comments.

@ swannyson7 - they were not all added at once. Started with the hippo and powder blue, then the kole and scopus then i added 2 yellows. one of the yellows got picked on and i was able to remove him, put him in the frag tank til he was healthy and brought it back to the lfs. I used to have a pair of blue jaw triggers, bought them young but they both turned out to be males, so they would fight and one over powered the other. I was able to remove one when he was swimming slowly near the top. added him to the frag tank and nursed it back to health, took it to the lfs. BUT my other male has developed a taste for my zoos. so i had to move all my zoos to the frag tank until i can catch him. The 2 most aggressive tangs in my tank are the Hippo and the Kole. They seem to chase anyone new.

Frag tank video here. :)
