Depend on the fish

I used to have

PT, YT, BT and PBT.

I introduced PT and YT at the same time, followed by PBT and last BT.

BT was the smallest and YT was the biggest.

However somehow 3 months down the road , BT become biggest followed by PT.

BT become the king mean eat most. So after I let go BT and PT, PBT become king and agressive on other fishes ( including YT ).

So in my case, PBT wasn't agressive as long as there are BT or PT.

If u want PBT do let me know haa haa me thinking of letting him go cause getting bigger ( 2 1/2" already )

How long ur PBT hv been in ur tank?Mine only 3ft worry no space for them to swim or hide.

Mime is 3x1.5x1.5, shhh don't let TangPolice know.

My YT is very shy, for your case if YT is bigger than PBT than.........

In my case YT is bigger than PBT, BT, PT but he is shy guys so safe.

I didn't introduce Glass, however did rescape a bit so they confused I guess

I once in same situation as you. But added the PBT, no fights.

I guess the shape of the fish makes the difference, ie, the PBT looks different from that of YT and PT. Powder Brown is more tame.

Different situation if you have 1 YT and add a PT. I watched my friend's YT wack a newly introduced PT in his tank, even with mirror method, to death in 20 minutes flat. Poor thing. We can't do anything to save the PT as both darting through the rocks with YT hot on the PT's heels.

[that was niceeeee]

nowadays many ppl have had success with PBT wonder y?..n in arofanatic theres a guy even kept 2 PBT in the same tank n did not die..

The funny thing is my YT only chase PT when daylights off when blue light on.What going to happen when tang police find out if hv to many tangs in a small tank

[weileong]

When your tangs starts chasing each other after lights off or lights dim down means your tank lacking of good sleeping spots. The tangs are fighting for the golden landmark for sleeping.

You can help to create more holes etc so these sort of behaviours can be reduced.

Good tip that we can't find in books.

Will have to start observing when Japonicus is in with Hippo.

Thks bro,today learn a new thing from u

[babyfishy]

mine fought...

added blue tang 1st, then 1 week later, added the brown tang

powder blue was very aggressive towards the brown fellow initially

so i rearranged my live rocks to confuse the powder blue and also

to create small hiding places/holes..

a few days later, the blue one was kicked out of its territory & left

wandering outside the live rocks area, while the black fellow occupied the

entire live rock area...
