hardy tang?

[reefNetWork]

Has anyone ever had a Lavender Tang? I have read that they are pretty hardy and good for controlling hair algae. Does anyone have any postive/negative experiences with these tangs?
or any recommendations for another tang? (80 gallon tank)
thanks william

Check out any member of the bristletooth family. Chocolate is my favorite, but tomini, kole, chevron, etc. all stay relatively small and control algae OK.

I personally think yellows are the hardiest.

I agree stay with the bristletooths they are relatively mild compared to other tangs and are always grazing for hair algae.
