I’m looking for advice. I have a 125 gallon tank. Already in my tank is a yellow, powder blue tang, sailfin, and Tomini. All of them are approximately 2-3” in size. Am I insane for thinking of adding water a final one to the gang? I’m leaning towards getting an orange shoulder tang or lollipop. Be brutally honest as I’d rather not get a fish killed and also torture the fish and waste money. That said the most aggressive in the tank is a tie between the yellow and pb
 
If the four are getting along I would not try to add one more.

have a 112 a gallon display with a Scopus, Sailfin and a powder blue. While they generally get along the Sailfin regularly harasses the others and it’s not uncommon to see a hole in a fish from fighting.

I have numerous other fish in the tank but the tangs are trouble makers. Good looking ones and love them.

Guess that’s true if I want another fish, plenty of others out there. They’re pretty much in harmony.
 
No more tangs unless you upgrading tanks. Probably will have to do that anyway with that Sailfin and PB
