I got a baby purple tang a few weeks ago then yesterday I got a even smaller scopas
the purple tang is aggressive towards him so i put the scopas in a acclamation box in the tank it has been about 12 hours over night and the purple is still obsessed with time in the box solve my problem because I do not want to rearrange the rock and due to my set up I can only move a couple of rocks I was hopping the box over time would be sufficient does anyone think this will work

Unfortunately they probably won’t get along, tangs usually can’t mix with conspecifics, especially Zebrasoma tangs who already sport more of an attitude.
I wouldn’t personally attempt to house them together
