3rd tang idea

SOARnTACO · Aug 6, 2019

We have two tangs in qt right now. Just lost our hippo to ich today. I heard 3 tangs is the way to go to help with aggression as they get older.

We have a yellow eye kole tang and Sailfin Tang, Desjardini

Any ideas for the 3rd one?

Those 2 should be plenty in a 125. And im not an fan of yellow eye kole tangs... they get MEAN... towards everyone. (At least everyone ive ever had does.)

If you're looking for another decent sized algae eater, foxfaces are pretty cool, and always been peaceful in my experience.

I think the 3 tang thing is a bit more geared towards when you are doing multiple zebrasomas in order to defray aggression between a couple rather than allowing one jerk to focus on one other. Basically make one jerk spread his hate between two others so they can have a break in getting picked on.

I don't think you'll really have issue with a Kole and a Sailfin since they're dissimilar.
