Convict Tang with Other Tangs

I've had good success from getting the, from a reputable dealer and also placing mastics foods in the qt tank to keep them eating well
 
i think they are very, very tough to succeed with. That said I've had one for several years. If you can get it established, you really can treat it the same as other tangs. I feed formula 2, occasional mysis and chopped shrimp.
As far as behavior, it is a more passive species.
Good luck!
 
I think many of them are carrying intestinal parasites
In my experience a few do well but most waste away even in an algae rich tank
I would Q and treat with prazipro I’d I get another one
