I'm in a new build to a 125 gallon tank. Can I add a powder brown and powder blue tang to the tank. If I do it at the same time?

Would stay away until the tank it fully established and ensure you put everything through QT. There ick magnets.

Tangs need to graze all day. You're going to need some well-etablished algae to keep new tangs calm.
My experience with PBTs and PBrTs is the browns tend to be more hyper, but slightly less aggressive than equal size blues. I would put them both in at the same time as you mentioned.

I'm moving everything over from a 75 gallon. I got the powder b own tang already. In my qt. My process of qt is first 2 weeks observing and making sure it's eating and etc. Third week general cure. Do that for a week then prazi pro for then copper treatment. Then after all that I observe them for 2 weeks after all treatments the in st.

I’d stay away from powder tangs. Especially both of them. Pick one if you really like them
