Tang trio in a 4 foot 120 gallon tank?

[reefinginBD]

I was wondering if I can keep a tomini tang, yellow tang and purple tang together in a 48x24x24 inch 120 gallon tank? Please let me know, thank you!

The tank size is OK. They may be aggressive toward one another though. I would introduce them all at once (or the tomini first).

Yeah that’s what I was thinking of doing. I plan on adding the tomini tang first and then after a few months yellow and the purple. I might also add the tomini first, then the yellow and finally add the purple later, but then I guess I would have to keep the yellow in the sump for a few days and then add the purple and the yellow together.

You really need to add the yellow and purple at the same time unless you want to chance loosing $200-$300. They are the same genus zebrasoma.

I would also tape a couple mirrors to the outside of the tank walls when the zebrasomas are added.
