I'm moving my tank this weekend and my clown tang needs a good new home. He is starting to act aggressive towards my blue throat trigger and I won't lie, I like the triggerfish better!

This tang (as with all my fish) was QT'd for 30 days and has never shown any signs of disease. As you can see in the pictures, he's healthy, fully colored up and fat!

He is a very active fish (hence the blurry pics) and therefore I do not recommend him for any tank under 180 gallons.

Size is 3.5-4" and his streamers are starting to come in.

$50

mark.=, I am SOOO tempted to get this fish... that said I have an established atlantic blue tang that may be a bit of a bully to this one. I do have an acclimation box I can use. my blue is 5-6"
 
It's impossible to know exactly how two fish will interact with each other and since your Atlantic Blue is much larger, it may be dominate over the clown. However, both of these tangs are in the same family (Acanthurus) which means they'll be most prone to fight with each other vs. other tangs of other types.

The acclimation box may help and you won't really know how things will fall out until you release them in the tank together and see how they do.
 
thanks... Ill leave this one for someone else then. I love my atlantic blue too much to risk it.....
