But from what I gather a Tang can for the most part only be kept singly right?

singly as far as? one per tank or one of one kind?

You can get a school of yellow Tangs.

well only if you had a huge tank sometimes yellow tang's literally use the bone on there back fin to attack other tang's and fish thus the name surgeon-fish I have a pic somewhere of a deep gash I got from a yellow tang that was stuck. Man that felt good lol. Most groups of tang's in a 120 gallon wouldn't be a good plan, I might try two tang's but really think about the yellow cause they can be nasty sometimes to other tank-mate's don't know why but I have noticed this over the past few year's.

Single in a tank cause of their aggression to each other and similar species

yeah they are nasty but you could luck out with one that is laid back but I figure I would rather tell you how they usually are so you don't invest and see your money on 2 different tang's and they fight and getting beat up or they could be fine.

yeah in a 120 i wouldn't go too deep into mixing tangss.. if it was a 125 it'd be a rather differnt story but that extra 4sq feet makes a difference
