Hi everyone.
I am looking to purchase a shark, and am debating between an epaulette and coral cat, I do have smaller fish, ~3” (tangs)

which would be more likely to leave them alone?

If they’re equal in chance, do they do well together?
 

i cant think

What’s the tank size?

Both these guys require large tanks. I had the Epaulette in a 300 gallon and it was still crowded. They love to swim and will knock stuff over it never messed with my Tangs but ate any shrimp it could find and other members of the CUC. It was in a 90 gallon when I first got it at about 4 inches long with in about a week it was almost a foot they grow fast.
