The cyanide theory would get my vote as well. Sometimes this just happens. I had a powder blue do the same thing, lasted a month. I fed it fresh algae, it still shriveled and died.
I have another PB on hold at ProReef, it spent a while in quarantine, then into one of the large frags tanks for the last 5 or 6 weeks. Although it's eating was sketchy for the first month, it's still in great shape, compared to the one I had that died after a similar time frame.
But FWIW, I would never add a tang to a QT, the lack of real world environment seems to stress them out. I add them to the community, they get to hang with other fish in a reef, and watch the others feed.

Hey Mark...do you have moon lights? The reason I'm asking is cuz I had a sailfin tang at one point and all my tangs got along until lights out. The salifin would always take after my PB after the moon lights came on. The sailfin would get his a$$ handed to him but it happened every night. Maybe the bullying happens after lights out.
