you don't have a big enough tank for those two they will fight no doubt, but if you do it anyways add them at the same time.

he shouldn't add both at all maybe one but not both, but if he wants both the best way to do it is adding them at the same time not one first and the other a few weeks down the road or even a few days.

that's what i did w/ mine and never had any problems, plus i know the tank is too small for both. but IF he does add them I'D add the sailfin 1st so he can get a claim on the tank b/c they do get picked on.

I beg to differ, my sailfin has harrassed my newly aquired PBT to death. Was very aggresive the moment he was put in. You never know the personality. Naso Needs lots of swimming room. In a 90? If you must get a tang why not go for a yellow or Kole?

that's why it's best to add them at teh same time. they have the same amount of time to create territories and acclimate to the tanks. if a fish has a bad attitude then obviously he's gonna pick on the other...there's just no way to tell. by adding them together you give them an equal chance
