Well, I traded in the Coral Beauty for a Yellow Tang. The Clown and CB just weren't getting along anymore.

The Tang is so mellow...he's (I'm guessing gender...) getting along great with the Clown. They're even swimming around the tank with each other. It's kinda like the Clown is showing him around the tank.

Looks like that's it for this tank!!!

how big is your yellow tang? he will outgrow your 26 very fast, and/or get stressed from being in such a small tank. do you plan to upgrade in the future?

Yellow tangs are actually one of the most aggressive tangs. I gave mine to a buddy of mine who has a 1200g cause it got to where the yellow tang would try to "spike" ther fish with the white spike thingy by its tail.

I agree with geek, but maybe you got lucky with yours.
This is a pretty good post on Tangs:
