Kole Tang and LemonPeel ?

Will there be any territory issues with a kole tang and lemonpeel in a 46G bowfront? The kole tang has been in the tank for about 4 months and I know he will outgrow the tank eventually but he looks as happy as can be now.
I guess what I'm really asking is, is there anything I should know about lemonpeel's that the online vendors don't tell you ?

PS: I saw on saltwaterfish.com they have a "orangeback basslet" that looks really cool, does anyone have experience with them ?
Thank you
 
:eek1: A kole tang in a 46g?? How big is he at the moment?


A lemon peel angel is generaly easy to keep, but it may nip on some of your corals if you ahve any.
 
He's a little over 3inches i'd say.
I'm glad you asked... b/c when I went over to get a pic of him i noticed has has aquired a taste for colt coral.....

He won't be in the tank for much longer. It's a shame... it was so good at algae control =(
 
The Kole will be in the right size tank. The Lemonpeel is very hardy, but I think not reef safe, more fish only. JD
 
Has anyone had experiences where Kole Tang eat colt coral ?
He has never done this before, and he isn't just picking at it, he is EATING it.
I've never heard of kole tangs eating coral, did I just get an exception?
And when people say "may nip" at corals, do they mean nip or EAT like my tang is doing now ?
