NAME OF TANG FISH???

[hexcolor reef]

Wondering what the name of this tang fish is and is it able to be housed with a clown tang

Maybe an adult chevron tang? Hard to tell with blues

I added another pic, still has blue lights on but body pattern & face can be seen better

Hmm now its looking more like a white tail kole tang with the yellow around its eyes!

Not sure about that tang but it will probably depend more on your tank size.

Oh lol i didnt even read the second part. Most clown tangs i have turn into pyschos so... adding in a new tang to an established clown... might not be a great idea

My clown tang is currently in QT, I’m looking to buy all of my tangs and keep them together in QT before adding to my display tank

Ahh yea then i say if the tanks sufficently large enough, see what happens. Sometimes they get along, other times...

Maybe a Dussumieri Tang?

I was thinking that but the pattern on the body do they change as it gets older?

I had to remove a clown from a 250 years ago. Wasn't big enough for him. It wasn't as much aggression towards the other tangs just a total spaze.

Mata tang

 

[Gtinnel]

Dussumieri would be my guess but there are several that look very similar, including the Mata that has already been mentioned.

 

[sc50964]

Mata is more elongated, more straight lines on its body & face, and a black tail blade

Duss is rounder, with brain like lines on its face as an adult, and a while tail blade.

How big is the QT? Crouding tangs that will get big later is going to create a huge amount of stress in QT unless there a lot of room and places to hide. The last thing I would want in a QT is too many fishes.

I can't tell what I am looking at in the pictures. I do guess that this one is going to get very big one day, but which one?

About the same size at full grown if they ever reach that size in a 500+ tank.

The more colorful of the two pix is Duss

I don’t have any rocks in the QT at all, keeping it clear so I know what’s going on with the fish. Each fish is about 3” smallest size. QT is 150 including sump

I plan on switching my display tank to a SeaPort just don’t know what size yet

I hope it’s the one on left, the more colorful one. Very nice. And a great addition
