Tangs

[cmustang]

So, I am planning my stock, I’m cycling a 120”x24”x24” tank. 300gallons with a lot of hiding spots in the rocks. How many tangs can I have?,I would like to have 3 yellow tangs, two purple, one power blue and a whitecheek. I was thinking to add them all at once. Any advice? Will it be ok…Y or N

I have an 8ft 310gal and I have 6 tangs. In my experience. I found that adding bigger fish than what's in there is a way to limit some aggression if you can't add all at once. I've had to pull aggressive fish and reintroduce after a couple days. Usually Purple tangs cause they're jerks.

Make sure you have plenty of hiding spaces and you should be fine. Minor changes to your scape can help too. Definitely use a big acclimation box when introducing. Every situation is different. Good luck
