Is it possible to keep a blue and brown powder tang in a tank together?
Yes, is it recommended? Depends on the tank size and time of introduction.

I’ve even seen one tank with all 4 of the powder tangs;
Achilles
Gold rim
Powder Brown
Powder Blue

But it was a 9 foot by 3 foot tank which makes sense as to why there was more success.

Makes sense, I’ve personally never seen more than 1 powder in a tank. So I wasn’t sure

They blend well together, however powder blue can be a jerk in time and both are prone to ich and skin issues
