Oh yeah... I may be able to pull it off but I'm real on the fence about it. The body types are really different.

i would give it a shot, just feed the tank heavily before you start your acclimation and then as soon as you put the new tang in, shut down the lights for the day. and just get a tang that is about his size

Oh yeah I have weighed it all out, he is just a belligerent asshole, so we will see. Ill probably setup a second skimmer in the sump before adding in another poop machine.
