Three Purple tangs together

[alexmarto]

Hi, what do you think about putting three purple tangs in the same 230gal tank? Is it possible?

There will be no more tangs, just a few small fish like firefish, fridmani and gobies.

Purple tangs are fiesty, and that seems like a heavy bioload ot me. But's it's possible. Beautiful fish, certainly.

I think the tank is big enough. The big question is will they fight?

Thanks for the anwsers. The tank is 180 cm x 70 cm x 70 cm (70" x 27.5" x 27.5"). I also think that the tank is big enough for three tangs, my main concern as to do with their behavior because they are of the same species and also purple tangs are usually aggressive.

No one as experience with more than one PT in the same tank?

My LFS swears that tangs do best in three's.....

I don't know about that, but that's what he says.
