My next fish ?

[tkimmons85]

I became obsessed with corals here lately but have started to think about fish again. Just to give you the details of currents stock again. I have a 125 gallon with

2 big clowns
1 damsel
1 sixline
1 medium size foxface
1 neon goby


I have always thought about

tangs
blennies
pseudochromis
and since hearing j. coppolino talk at the swap I have even thought about
dwarf angels


What do you guys think?

i love a cole or yellow eye tang. beautiful and functional

and i forgot the #1 fish of all time and engineer gobie and the $7 is not bad either. these fish have great personalities.

For what it's worth, just because it is a tang, does not mean it will eat the algae in your tank. My Kole Tang doesn't touch it at all, I mean not even a bite. It will only eat flake food, and occasionally a piece of mysis. I am actually thinking of trading it in, it is mean too, a big bully.

Powder blue or achilles tang

agree with esabasard, got a powder blue this week and it is pretty cool...not a good pic, but.......

you already know this as did i, but let me share from a recent lesson. quarentine tank. a powder brown ich'ed my whole tank because i skipped the QT.

Browns and Blue's are notorious for it..so yes, qt is recommended, especially for those.

Ya i was torn between those tangs for a while but I decided against them for being so ich prone. Also I dont have a hair of algae in my tank so they would have anything to eat anyway. I have always been partial to a purple tang or an achilles tang myself.

 

[NeveSSL]

Achilles is my ultimate goal. A powder blue is also high on the list, though.

If you can get a healthy specimen then it would be great to add powder blue or brown. Both are beautiful!!! I love my Naso Tang though....And my recent purchase of the Metallic Foxface, will be finding a new home for my Foxface Lo once I get the big tank.....
