Compatible Tangs?

[futurlitigatr]

I've only had my 55 gal setup for 4 months. I have a yellow tang, clown trigger, clown, damsel and i just purchased a scopas? tang. When i first bought my trigger the yellow tang was very aggressive towards it, but eventually the yellow tang left it alone. As i mentioned before i just purchased a scopas tang, the yellow tang won't even let it out of the corner. What's up? Are they going to be like this all the time? Do i have to get rid of the scopas tang? And, maybe if i rearrange the tank will this cause the yellow tang to be less territorial. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Remember, I'm a novice at this. <img src="graemlins//confused.gif" border="0" alt="[confused]" />

yellow tangs are an agressive fish. They are most agressive to tangs of their similar body type. Be careful that the scopas tang doesn't get ich from the stress.

What about the yellow, should i worry about it getting ich? And does ich look like little spots around the eyes? <img src="graemlins//confused.gif" border="0" alt="[confused]" />

ich looks like grains of salt..i think the white dot ur talking about is normal on a yellow tang.

Thanks for your insight, I think that in order to avoid bothering either one, i'm just going to get rid of the scopas. Thanks once again.
