My experience exactly, my first yellow tang would insert himself between an aggressive fish and his chosen target and cover the poor fish with his body, risking becoming the abused himself. Great fish, very hardy and adaptable. Always eats well and quickly, adjusts to tank life immediately. My favorite fish of all time for his activity and vibrant color.
