Yellow Tang Decoy

[Kingston]

Does anyone have experience with using 3D printed Tang decoys? I had have a few tangs including a purple, yellow and sailfin. The yellow tang was very skinny, with HLLE when I got it. It developed a popeye as well. Thought it wasn't going to make it. I got another yellow tang from my LFS and put it through QT and meds. During that time, the sick yellow tang seem to be recovering very well. Now I have a yellow tang done with QT still languishing in a 20g tank that I bet it is not happy in. I want to add it to my DT (8ft long) but worried about aggression from the other tangs. I want to try one of these 3D printed decoys.

I've used mirror and a different hang on side acclimation box but my yellow and sailfin tangs killed any new fish added since them (except neon blue gobies). Using SHU I was able to move it around right INTO TERRITORY within my 180g and acclimation went wonderfully (read minor fighting and no death).
