yellow tangs

i need to buy a few yellow tangs for mainly algae grazing purposes. first question is would 3 be ok in a 220? i think this would be a good number personally..also i have a powder brown who seems to be fairly aggressive. would numbers help the break in period? also what about size? small? medium? any suggestions would be welcome. i plan on ordering from Corals Plus. i will be happy to post my experience with them.. thanks, greg

Greg,
I also have a 220 and opted for only one yellow. I do have a blue hippo that I got as a baby and the yellow doesn't bother him. However I tried adding a Naso and had to get rid of him. The yellow was never going to leave him alone. Three would be tight in my opinion but I am sure could be done well. I would definitely however plan on not adding anything even remotely like them after this. Just a thought. Good luck and put up some pics of them all together. I am sure it will be cool.

i would suggest another type of tang. yellows are very agressive and you will have problems adding other tangs later in the future
