Does anyone have tang compatibility chart so I can see what tangs get along together. Or know which tangs get along together.
 
I was wondering if I could keep a blue hippo tang a yellow tang and a purple tang together

Background information would help?

How big is your tank?

Perhaps a full tank shot to show tank layout and your previous experience with tangs.

You can.

The basic rule is they can't be the same species. But even that, with a big enough tank and good aquascape, you can get away with it.

I have 3 yellows, a desjardini, blue hippo, and tomini tang in my tank. The desjardini is the bully, but the most he does is force other tangs away from him.

I don’t have a tank yet but I’m looking at maybe a 6 1/2 ft tank but I’m not sure I have a 80 gallon now
