Can the yellow tang kill other fish?
A Pacific blue tang, commonly called a Dory fish from the Disney move "Finding Nemo," can typically be kept with a Hawaiian yellow tang. Yellow tangs can be aggressive towards other tangs with similar round body shapes. Since blue tangs have an elongated body, yellow tangs do not consider them a threat. Some tangs require a large aquarium; yellow tangs can grow to over 7 inches in length while blue tangs can grow up to 12 inches long. Juvenile blue tangs can be kept in smaller tanks up to 75 gallons but as they grow and mature they should be moved into larger aquariums.
Can blue tangs live in saltwater aquariums?
They are saltwater fish. Tangs are pretty hardy too. The yellow tangs are the most common. They can all live in a saltwater aquarium as long as you keep up the tank properly. Tangs can get aggresive so only have one tang at a time as they will fight each other.

Common name for blue tang?
There are two species, in two different genera, called "blue tang." The Atlantic blue tang is in the genus Acanthurus (species, Acanthurus coeruleus). The blue tang native to the Pacific and Indian Oceans is in the genus Paracanthurus (species Paracanthurus hepatus). This is the one that is more popular as a marine aquarium fish. It is also called the regal tang, blue surgeonfish, hippo tang, palette surgeonfish, or flagtail surgeonfish. Both of these blue tangs are in the family Acanthuridae, the surgeonfishes.
