Some of the Tangs YOU would get?

Some of the Tangs YOU would stay away from?

I’ve have 2 scopas tangs and currently only have one now, it’s the only tang I’ve ever had and really caught my attention besides others.

Wondering what Tangs should be put in my 200g..

Every opinion/advice helps not only to ME but OTHERS IN NEER OF ADVICE.‼️

Advice like:
What tangs are the easy to care for?

How many gallons does most tangs require?

Can you put multiple Tangs Together?

ALL QUESTIONS THAT OTHERS MIGHT WANT THE ANSWERS TOO.
 
I have a 210 gallon tank a tang gang of a Scopas a purple tang a blue hippo tang and powder brown . I currently have a sail fin in quarantine. When he’s done with that, he’ll be my last addition.

I’m sure you know that you have to be careful when adding zebrasomas together. My scopas tang pushes around the purple a little bit. Make sure you have at least 200 pounds of rock in your tank. Lots of crevices and hiding places.

The blue hippo and the powder brown are among my favorites but as you know, or will read, they are ICH magnets. You’ve got to make sure that everyone of your fish gets quarantined with copper and prase pro fluke medication before you consider putting them in your display tank. NO EXCEPTIONS.

Blue hippos are peaceful Powder Brown’s can be somewhat aggressive. I think mine killed my copper banded butterfly.
