Tang pairs???

[SOARnTACO]

I tried my luck at a powder blue failed unfortunately.
Now I would like to get a flame fin tang. And maybe a yellow eye tang?
Any ideas to pair with a flame fin or other combos.
Also I have a 125gallon tank

I’m not familiar with the Flame Fin, but the Yellow Eye Kole Tang will constantly pick algae from your rocks— so I’d start with that, due to its beauty “and” usefulness.

Adding tangs from the same genus is harder than mixing the genus. So I'd suggest one bristletooth only and possible a zebrasoma instead. The closer related the tangs the more aggressive they are likely to be in general.

Yup. Tangs from the same species most likely to not get along; tangs from different genus most likely to get along. Flame fin (tomini) and Kole are different species from a common genus, so somewhere in the middle in terms of getting along. Size of the tank is a factor also - 125 is on the small size for more than one.
