    Time for a new tang

    Hey all! I'm going to a few lfs to find the last tang for my tank. I have a yellow and an orange shoulder. I've been thinking on a sohal, purple or a powder or hippo but most on that list don't get high scores on the friendly list. Any if you have any thoughts or suggestions for a new add?

    As far as looks go, I'd have to go with the Sohal...but I don't know the first thing about their care and temperament.

    What about a black tip reef shark? It's got reef in the name...that must mean it's reef safe, right?

    Re: Time for a new tang

    I've seen videos of a sohal tang getting pretty aggressive. How about a naso blond (Naso elegans) or a Sailfin Desjardini (Zebrasoma desjardini)? Boy, I wish I could go tang shopping. By the way, I heard black tip reef sharks do best in pico and nano tanks .
