I was introducing a new sohal tang to my display tank. I have a pretty aggressive purple tang also in the dt. I introduced the sohal tang and about every 30 seconds he was getting hit from my purple tangs tail. I knew this was not good for my new fish. I called up my lfs and asked what they recommend. They recommended for me to either put a mirror next to my tank to distract the fish or do what I did which was --- to a printed picture ( I chose a yellow tang) of another tang, and tape it to the aquarium wall. I thought that they were crazy but it actually worked! The purple tang I guess was scared of the yellow tang because it much larger than it. Just a helpful hint to those in the same trouble that I was in. I know it sounds weird but when I tried it, it really stopped attacking my sohal. Give it a try.
