Mixing tangs

[zygote2k]

I have 2 YT's, a sailfin, and a hippo in a 500g and they all get along fine. I'll be adding a Tomini soon and don't expect any issues.

There are also some other herbivores in here too- a 12" French Angel, Jumbo Foxface and a Two-barred Rabbitfish to help mix things up.

I believe Justin can weigh in on here too.

How do the rabbits do? Mine were fine when I added our kole and they all schooled together but I'm wondering about other tangs interacting with them. Our orange shoulder is in a different tank at the moment. No one's been introduced to the 360 yet (I've been a slow poke about getting it going, it's had to take a back seat more than a few times).

 

Are there any tangs that I should get, qt, and introduce into the 360 before the orange shoulder? I'm planning on introducing (if possible) my shyest fish to the tank first. I don't really have any fish that should pose aggression problems, my coral beauty pair and falco hawkfish pair are going in last but that's the only hold as far as order of establishing territories.

 

That's crazy about the kole piper, is he ornery with your other fish or is it just with your tangs he's a bully?

This guy has me drooling over achilles - any idea on if he's a hybrid and why he hasn't sold yet? I think he's gorgeous but we're afraid to add him now as the second tang, and with a possible short life span. Help me escape an impulse buy (or convince my husband lol!).
