Hi everyone I was wondering if anyone had ever tried housing a blue tang with a Huma, I have a 125 gallon with a 3 in foxface,Huma and blue spot puffer and two baby clowns I wanted to add a dory
 
I don't think the trigger will notice the tang after the initial adding. A large huma I took care of in either a 125 or a 180 (it was a long time ago, 15+years ago), didn't care about a butterfly or tang. You might not want to add a tiny blue tang that could be chomped.

Sometimes, the pacific blue/regal/hippo tangs will outgrow a standard 125, as they can grow big, but not always. :)

Thank you for the reply, I'm looking to go to an 8 foot 250 sometime in the next year hopefully
 
Ive had these together. Would be of low concern
