Copperband Butterfly and Hippo Tang? Is this an option?
Hi, I am wanting to take my copperband out of my 75 gallon tank and put him in with my blue hippo tang in my 180 gallon. I have heard that some tangs just won't get along with some copperbands. Does anyone have these two together? Did they go at it right off the bat or didn't they even look at each other when one or the other was added? Thanks for any help.

Thanks for all the feedback everyone. Keep em coming. I just don't want to throw my CBB in the main tank and have him tore up by my hippo if they are notorious for taking advantage of CBB's

They should be okay together. Mine gets along fine with my tangs. Mine actually bullied my convict tang a little at first. There are exeptions to every rule but in general they should get alone fine.

They should be okay..Hippo's are one of the more peaceful Tangs. I'd try it, you could always return the Copperband to the 75 if it doesn't work

My big sailfin chases my CBB very rarely, never having bitten him. My large Hippo couldn't care less. Purple also couldn't care less.

you can try and put the cbb in a clear container big enough for it and set it in your tank for a few days and see how they react to each other.

I wouldn't risk it Freed, if anything for the insane zooming of the hippo discombobulating the delicate constitution, and serene cruisings of the Copperband.
Tangs have always harried & hounded my YLN butterflies remorselessly, can't see why it would be any different with a Copperband. But then again as you can see from my sig...
