Huma Huma tankmates?

Will a huma huma trigger and a yellow tang be compatible? What about a lunar wrasse? I got my trigger with a bicolor dottyback(royal dottyback), and they're fine together(for a about a year). I'm gonna need something that will take care of some of the algae, thinkin the tang will be a good choice. Also i love the activness of the lunar wrasse, i was thinking that one of equal or bigger size of the trigger would be okay, its only about 4". Going to add the trigger last, figured it might help with territory disputes. Get back with some info, greatly appreciate it.

How long has the trigger and dottyback been in the tank alone? And how big is the tank? Chances are if those 2 have been alone for awhile they will both harass any new fish you add!!!

A Lunare Wrasse should be able to take care of itself without any problems in a tank with a Humuhumunukunukuapua'a and a Dottyback. Just don't add one small enough that the Picasso will eat it before it grows up. A Yellow Tang should be fine, too, provided it is large enough when you put it in the tank.

I'm back, I got the lunar in with the trigger, they're doing fine. The tank looks great, got some brown algae, but seems to be disappearing off the LR lately. just waiting for the corraline to take over all the rock. The dottyback is great and the trig loves the new tank. thanks for the replies.
