I just dumped the flame angel in the main, I need to get a new fish for the QT. I was thinking of a chevron Tang. I know that they change color when they get older. Does anyone have a pic. of their own adult chevron? Has anyone had any problems with them? How long before it changed colors? One of the LFS has a >2" one for sale is this to small to be a good choice?

I have 100gal with 2 green chromas, 1 Foxface, and 1 flame angel.
 
As far as chevrons they change color at different rates depending on their conditions and how fast their growth rate is buit you know the change strarts as they get larger.
Before you buy the littlke Chevron see if he eats well when the LFS feeds him and look at all their stock especailly his tank mates and determine if most is healthy. Do a water change or two in the quartine before you get him ( that goes without saying obviously)

My experience with Chevrons is i got a sick one online and he died in my tnak the next day...and i tried to order one through an LFS but it died in shipping so ive given up on them...however good luck if you give him a shot..that being said dont let my bad experience with them prevent you from giving him a try.
