Acanthurus maucileps

Would one of these be OK in a 200 gallon? Only other tang is a Yellow Scopas and two moorish idols.
It should be fine, just eatch for aggression from the scopas when first introduced.
 
Have to say congrats, this is an awesome peaceful fish. If the scopas is aggressive, then toss it out(the scopas).

I had mine with a purple tang, the purple would often attempt to attack, but the mac just swam away.
