I am having trouble making out any other tangs besides the two Zebrasoma spp. (Z. flavescens and Z. xanthurum)... maybe it's my screen resolution.

In any event, you have good reason to fear this aggression between all the tangs. Your best chance is is there's good disparity in size, most likely chance of success would be if the new introduction is significantly larger than the current residents.

I must make note that you have one SWEET setup there.
