Regal tang & Yellow tang in the same tank???

[Florida8]

I have been browsing sw tank pictures and notice quite a few people have them in the same tank. Years ago when we had our 55g they said no matter what size tank, NEVER mix tangs. I never did. Does this not really apply anymore?

i have a 90 gal. and i have a regal and a yellow tang

they do not attack each other in any way

the problem with your tank is that it is to small for a regal tang at even half of its full grown size. so two tang are a definetly no

Thanks! We don't have the 55g any longer and are looking into a bigger tank, leaning towards an 80 or 120.

What about the Kole tang? Will they get along with the regal or yellow just as well.

IME keep tangs that look disimilar, the more disimilar the better
