What other tangs do you have? The clown is one on the most aggressive tangs in the hobby, the other one you listed would top it.

With 8 tangs already in there, I wouldn't add another one, I see the balance being upset and WW III starting.

The only fish that I have ever taken back to my lfs was a Clown Tang. Mean as anything, and it followed and harassed some of my other fish. I would never think of buying one again. My Achilles rules the tank now, and I have a Powder Blue that is second in charge. My opinion is the clown tang will cause all sorts of trouble.

They are pretty much the same fish but ypu have a better chance with a small sohal make sure he is 1/2 the size of the other tangs so he cant dominate them from day 1

I have had a sft, pbt and a small sihal in my 300 but you may be pushing it with that many tangs in any tank under 1,000gal after a while.
