You may see some agression at first, but the PBT can stick up for itself

I have them both in a 120g and wouldn't reccomend both of them in anything smaller. BTW I added the PBT 2 weeks after the yellow.

After reading your thread a few posts down about how aggressive your yellow tang is, I wouldn't chance it. A 95 gallon is pretty small for a tang that is that aggressive to live peacefully with a PBT.

Yes my notorius yellow tang, will any other simolar tang work.
Might be a stupid question, but if i get the PBT bigger then the yellow, no space then or?

Stick with the yellow for now. You've got two things working against you. The first is the aggression issue with the Yellow. It will pick on mostly anything you add to the tang regardless of whether it's a tang or not. The second is tank size.

2 tangs in a small tank will require more food to keep them nonagressive than most hobbists are willing to introduce into a reef. I would not do it in a 95G tank.

Ok, thanks guys.

What two tang would work for a 95 gal if i decide to get rid of my yellow?
