I have decided that I want to anchor my FOWLR with a purple tang. My darling wants a yellow tang! They have pretty much identical shapes so I don't think they will work well together. My first question is has anyone tried these two tangs together? My second question is do you have any recommendations for a Yellow marine fish that will work together with a purple tang? My current inhabitants (sp) are two green chromis, two blue damsels, two percula clownfish, and one dwarf flame angle.

I wouldn't put a purple tang in there with a yellow. they will fight. I won't get into the tank size limitations you have, but will basicly say most people are probably going to tell you 90gal is probably too small for a tang once it is full grown.

Thanks for the help. Anyone try a lemon peal dwarf angle with a flame angle? Probably won't work either.
