So sometime in the future, I would love to get a Tang or two. I have a 120g reef aquarium and have always loved the look of tangs. My questions are this:
Which Tangs are best kept in the home aquarium?
Is 2 a suitable number for my size of tank?
My LFS recently told me a tip they have when it comes to Tangs: keeping 2 "diamond bodied tangs (i.e. Yellow Tang)" is more difficult than keeping 1 "diamond bodied" Tang and one "oval bodied" (i.e. Blue Tang) Tang. Is this true? Does anyone have any testimony regarding this?
I also quarantine everything I get for a minimum 2 weeks, depending on where it comes from, would 2 juvenile Tangs be okay in a 10g QT, or should I use my empty 55g for their quarantine?

Thank you to anyone who is willing and able to help!
 
def use the 55 gallon.
 
The only issue with using the 55 that arises is, I don't have room inside for it. It's sitting in my garage, which gets about 10°+/- as compared to indoors. I would have to find some way to insulate it against the change in temperature...(summer months it gets warmer, winter months it gets colder)
