Is it a good idea to mix tangs

[kengaroo]

I am thinking of purchasing a blue hippo tang and a yellow tang at the same time. I have read that the yellow tang might be aggresive toward other tangs. If I introduce them together at the same time, would that help the aggression rather than one at a time? Also would it help if I get a yellow tang that is smaller than the blue tang?
My current tank consist of the following:
2 Clarkii Clown
1 Yellow clown goby
6 turbo snails
8 margarita snails
10 Scarlet Reef Hermit Crab

Most important question - What size is your tank?

kis profile says its a 46 which is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to small for any tang

I hate being like the police, but I'll second the opinion that it is probably too small for even 1 moderate sized tang.

i know that's not the point of this thread, but i have to agree. Now if you have the proper tank size, you can have the two tangs together, but a bigger tank = less chance of aggression. Also, you should introduce the yellow tang last.
