anthias vs tang...

[2slo4me]

So yesterday I decided to buy a nice sze pink square anthias... and guess what my devil orange spotted/lined bristletooth tang started beating on the anthias now my question is... who do you think will win? they are both about the same exact size except the tang is thinner... tang has been living in my tank for about 1 year now. i have tryed time and time again to catch him with no luck... this weekend if he doesnt stop i will tear the tank apart to get the lil ucker.. lol.

i hope the anthias will hang in there till i catch the tang. :bablefish

why cant they just be all :inlove:

I always bet on the established fish regardless of sizes.

the tang going to win that battle, if the anthias could survive the onslaught the first few days, it should make it otherwise i would remove the anthias

x2...if it survives, but I wouldn't take the chance..tangs are very teritorial...either remove the tang for a few days to let the anthias establish it self or try moving around the rockwork

The tang hands down.

before you tear apart the tank try a fish trap first,could save you time.

I would try moving the rock if you can't catch the tang, then move it back after a few days.

tang will win BUT the tang might stop fighting once he get use to the new fish

I want to get rid of the tang reguardless.... if anyone has a fish trap and wants the fish pm me. thanks. if not this weekend i will get to work... tang will be the new sump king if need be. lol
