I personally would if you can get hold of one, it’s going to help with reducing aggression the only issue I see is with the gem and black - they’re almost identical so there could be slightly more aggression aimed towards eachother.

A yellow should work perfectly, a tomini/kole would go in and do nothing unfortunately - those guys get ignored by almost all tangs.

Another thing you could do as I’d personally try to avoid adding a 4th tang is adding a different but similar bodied fish that has the boisterous behaviour such as a Zosters or Pyramid Butterfly but isn’t a species of Tang. This will work in the same way but without having another hyperactive fish that could wipe out a tank :)

might look at pyramid butterfly then more chance of getting 1 than a yellow anyways + if i did manage to get a yellow would probs be very small

might just add the black and avoid another big fish all together get pictures/mirrors/acrylic toys
