I am thinking of adding 3 more Pyramid Butterflyfish to my tank.
My question is I have 2 yellow and a black already. Do you think I will have issues.

tank is a 375 with the following in it:

2 Hippo Tang
Yellow Belly Hippo Tang
1 Green Chromis
Regal Angel
Orange Shoulder Tang
Hoeven's Wrasse
Red Sea Emperor Angel
Yellow Tailed Angel
Flame Fin Tomini Tang
Coral Beauty
Male and female Orange Anthias (Lyretail)
Male and female Mandarin
2 Yellow Pyramid Butterfly
1 Female Unknown Lyretail Anthia
1 Male Square Spot Anthia
1 Female Square Spot Anthia
1 Black Pyramid Butterfly
 
Nice stocking list! Any pics?

No help on the butterfly fish but someone will chime in!
 
I think you'd have more issues with the Tangs accepting the newcomers, than you would the other butterflies. ;)
 
I have never seen P Fly's become too agro towards each other but that does not mean that the one's in your tank will not try to establish dominance towards the new ones. The tang's like stated bf would be your biggest problem imo, and the angel's as well. I usually feed right bf I add new fish to reduce the agro to the new fish. Good luck!
 
I will see if I can get the local store to get in three at once. This is the only way I can do it.
