yellow tang attacking blue hippo tang

my yellow tang was attacking my hippo tang so badly i had to shut off the lights. is there something else i can do when the lights go on today to change that? maybe reqrrange the rocks? i cannot catch either tangs now unless i take out all the rock so i need a different option.

i had the yellow tang for a couple weeks and just got the blue hippo.

There's no option, ones gonna have to go. The yellow tang will most likely continue to kick the crap out it. The Hippo should have gone in first or not at all.

ditto the hippo will stress out to fast get ick and die. get him out as soon as you can.

well its a little better. when the lights went off tonight, the yellow tang kept hitting it with its tail and the blue tang just looked upset, but he did move. hes now on the other side of the tank with the yellow tang patrolling the tank for the night.

with the lights on today the yellow tank didnt bother the hippo.
