Lemonpeel angel with yellow bristletooth

[gflat65]

I'm picking up a lemonpeel angel from a local reefer today. My wife has always wanted an angel and I've always told her no. My first thought was to put it in her 75. However, she gas a tiny (a little bigger than the diameter of a quarter) yellow bristletooth tang. The tang has similar coloration to the lemonpeel. Should I expect any issues? If so, I can put the lemonpeel in a different tank. The lemonpeel is about 3" or so long.

It's difficult to say if you will have trouble or not. I've seen the opposite where my Kole tang did not care for a small Lemonpeel angel. (This was in a 160.) The thing you have going for you is the smaller fish is already established in the system. If you have lots of places for the tang to hide, it may work out alright. If you do get the angel, I wish you the best of luck!

I opted to put it in a separate part of the system. It's in the living room (instead of the bedroom), so it'll get seen more, too. I'd hate to have caused any issues with the tiny tang.
