Looks like I won't have to sell the tang after all. He's calmed down a lot and stopped chasing the lunare. Still does it once in a while but it's getting better each day.
Don't count on it. I had a yellow tang that was best buds with everyone, and even paired up with one of my clowns. He suddenly went postal and killed half my fish, including the clownfish, before I discovered it was him. The problem is that these fish have a lethal weapon, and when they use it, a lot of damage occurs.
I do wish you luck.

Yikes!! Wow, I would not have expected that.
I believe my Powder Blue Tang had the barb removed by the LFS, before I bought him. Because it's not there, like it is on my Naso Tang. That area is just flat. So he can't do much damage, even if he wants.

I guess he was a terror there too huh?
Do you have a pic of this fish? I want to see the poweder blue!
He's the king of the tank, nobody messes with him. Funny thing though, he's best friends with my naso tang. But I got both at about the same time and they spent a good 1-2 months in a QT together, when they were smaller. The powder blue turned out with ich after being in QT for 2 weeks and then my friend gave me the naso, so I treated both in the QT with hypo. They grew up together.
