i want to add a smaller powder blue and a smaller clown tang in my tank . i already have orange shoulder and powder brown tang (same species). along with purple, yellow, and blue tang. i want to replace my beloved male blonde naso tang that past recently. will it work. i will add them at the same time after placing them on the sump for a couple of weeks to make them healthy and acclimate better. if i can find a achilles i want to add it too!

I would think that the clown tang would be ok. But I think the powder brown might pick at the powder blue%%

how is the asm 4 working on your tank. i went to my lfs and he told me is to small for my 265 with a large tangs he told me that it was impossible. then he suggested a bubble king skimmer which he told me that it would run around 2500 to 3000 grand....oh also what kind of pump did it come with it? tell me the difference between a 9000 and a 15000pump on your asm4 thanks...

the powder blue remain on the sump by itself . i have 150 gallon sump with refugium on the end with good light and it have a 4 ' x 18" open space for the powder blue to roam .i also added 2 large flat rock to make it more comfortable. i am thinking of adding more light on directly on the the powder blue side to retain its wonderful color and its getting automatic fresh water bath from my ATO daily.
