Tang compatibility

[jschne06]

I was planning on getting a hippo tang and blonde naso for my 180 gallon (6foot) tank, but I am reading that the naso needs tons of room. What other smaller tangs would be the most compatible with the hippo tang? Thanks

You could do a group of 3 yellow tangs. If added togather in a large tank. Fed well they will co exist well

Is there a reason why I should add three and not just one or two?

A single Hippo and a single Yellow Tang will work fine. I would advise against the Naso in a 6 foot tank.

Would a kole yellow eye and a powder brown work with the hippo? (just those three, not the yellow)

W yellow u want 1 or 3 BC when u do two. Generally one becomes more aggressive towards the other. 3 usually evens this out. The other tangs u asked about idk much about
