I have a 150 gal (45 sump) with a 4"-5" Purple tang (he is the only tang). I have ordered a (pre-quarantined) CBB that should be arriving soon. This is my first try at a CBB and want to give it the best shot of succeeding.
I am considering the following options:
1. Rehome the Purple Tang before introducing the CBB.
2. Move the Purple Tang to the sump for a week and introduce the CBB.
3. Setup my hospital tank (29 gal) and move the Purple for an extended period (1 month?) while the CBB settles into the DT.
I do have mirrors and an acclimation box if necessary.
I previously tried to add a regal angelfish that was bullied by the Purple to the point that the regal would not eat at all.
Any advice?
