How many tangs can you keep in a 125 gallon tank. I have a yellow tang, blue tang, and rabbit fish in my tank now. I just added a sailfin tang? Does anyone have any success keeping all three of these?
I'm sure some, somewhere has; short term anyhow. But that doesn't mean its a good idea. Sailfins get huge and Yellows don't like newcomers in general and really dislike tangs of the same genus (ie: the sailfin.) I wouldn't be surprised if, by the time this is posted, your YT has the S.Fin pinned in a corner.I'd really research these additions before buying...hope it works.

It seems as though they are getting along just fine. At first there was some aggression but that only lasted an hour or two. Yes Srfisher17 I did do research on that topic and I know a few people who have had success and some who have not. I wanted to see experiences some have had on this site. I am upgrading to a 240 gallon tank so they will not be in the 125 gallon forever
