If it is a 6 ft tank then you are probably in good shape. But if the yellow tang is the larger of the 2 then the naso might take a slight beating until the yellow tang has proven his dominance. After that, if it happens, you should be OK.

Tangs should never be left in a pair of 2 there should be 3 or more! a 150 is big enough how much live rock do you have? A Naso tang should be the first of the Tangs introduced FYI but they can be placed in system later. These are the most peaceful of the tangs and when placed first they seem to do better. What other fish are in the system?
