Tank Big Enough?

Could I keep a yellow tang (4.1 in.) and a blue regal tang (2.0 in) in a 6 foot long 84 gallon tank? I have 100 pounds of LR and plenty of hiding places, is this enough room for them or am I asking for trouble?
Also I read that the regal tang can tolerate other tangs, but is the yellow tang to aggressive?

I think you would be just fine. Neither of these tangs get real big (compared to a naso or sailfin). My only concern would be my experience with yellow tangs. They are pissy little things. I would establish the hippo tang first before introducing the yellow.
That must me one long skinny tank!
