    You need a mature tank for a kole. I put one in a 6 month 90 and it wasted away. They need a lot to graze on.

    I 2nd the Royal Grammas can be aggressive, however a 125 should be ample room. Where I have seen Grammas called aggressive is here on 3reef but again tank size and territory can be a factor which triggers the behavior.

    My experience with them however has been they are docile and tend to keep to themselves.

    In the end just like people you get all kinds of attitudes depending on the situation.
