Two bristletooth tangs in a 90 gallon?

[BelieveInBlue]

So I have a tiny squaretail bristletooth tang. He's about 1.5inches nose to tail and follows my exquisite wrasse around the tank like a puppy. My LFS has an equally small tomini tang, and I was wondering if adding it to the tank with the squaretail would work out? I've only had the squaretail for a few days so far, and the tomini, if I do get it, will probably be added next week or the week after.

Does anyone have experience keeping multiple tangs, bristletooth or otherwise, longterm in a 90 gallon tank?

Two in a 65g for 3 years.
They are now 5 years old and in a 180g.

Depends if there are already other tangs or large fish.
Those two tangs are not the most aggressive in terms of tangs so in a 90, that might work fine.
Make sure to feed well.
I always add new fish to the acclimatization box for a day and then add in the middle of the night.

There are no other tangs, and they'd be the only tangs in there. They'd also be the largest fish in the tank. Everything else will max out at about the same size or under.

How did this work out?

I decided against getting the tomini. Probably a good idea because the squaretail turned out to be a bit of a jerk. Nothing too serious but he's definitely #2 behind the bellus angel.
