Make sure your tank is big enough for them. Cause the last time i put my yt and pt together thing turn ugly. Hope you got better luck. The best if you can intro your tang all at the same time. Only one advice cross your fingers and hope for the best.

Hi Lester,

I have a Yellow Tang, Purple Tang and a Blue Tang.

I introduce the fishes in this order Purple Tang, Yellow Tang followed by Blue Tang.

Bought the Purple tang from a reefer and kept it for abt 6 mths before I bought the Yellow Tang.

Yellow Tang kena chia lat from the Purple... fins got all torn and this fighting went on for 1 week. Use mirror also no use and thought the yellow will sure die.

But now they are the best of friends - both fish with me for abt 2 years now.

No such prob when I introduce the Blue Tang later as this bugger is twice the size of the other two.

I would recommend you introduce them in this order... Blue Tang, Yellow Tang and then Purple cos purple is the most aggressive. But no guarantee that they won't fight...

If your tank is less than 5 feet dun think abt keeping so many tangs

You are lucky man. Some people like me don't have that kind of luck .

try to intro the PT & YT together at the same time...cos they will still fight wif each other even though u intro which one first...my 2 cents

Stand by a fish box, to put in the big bully
