I know mixing different tangs is what most people practice, but let see and hear from people who keeps a group of the same kind. Please have pictures if possible, and provide a little info how how you started the group and the current status of them. This will be very interesting to see.

Sorry if I wasn't clear in the thread title, but I am inquiring about a group of tangs of the same species. Like a group of puple or yellow, etc.

My friend's tank which is just over 8 feet long has a group of yellow tangs. Their leader is a Huge Blue tang not seen in this picture:

All were introduced after the tank cycled in March 2006, and they are all doing OK to this date. The Blue tang was introduced about a month after the school settled. I thinned out the population of the 8 yellow tangs to 6, one was given away, the other is in my tank. Guess who cleans the tank?!?!?


He's also got a school of anthias in there:

its my dream to have a large group of yellow tangs some day or perhaps a group of convicts but it is truly the yellow tangs that got me into the hobby in the first place

I wish my firefish would swim out in the open like in that pic.

Just beautiful! Come on keep them coming. Let's see some purple and powder blue groups, or any other for the matter.
