Like most fish in the Surgeon Fish Family, the Sailfin Tang is a fish that does not play well with other Sailfin Tangs. They are very territorial, so if you put two of them together they will fight. Because of the razor/spur by the tail, when
they fight they will cut each other up. We advise not putting more than one to a tank. For more information, see the Sailfin Tang Profile.
Thinking about adding a Surgeonfish to your tank? See the Saltwater Aquarium Fish Compatibility Chart first.
