    I feel like I have a dog the way they make me feel guilty every time I go near the tank they wag like dogs. Way too funny.:cheesy:

    I have been putting off getting one because I want him to be the last tang in the tank. My Naso's are some fierce eaters too and my male blonde naso can swallow 1/2 sheet of algae in one bit.. :eek:

    Thanks for the info.

    Mine too. I think they are saying "The bringer of food....look there he is.. " :lol:

    Exactly! But they do bite at the hand that feeds them.

    My African Hippo tang has real sharp teeth but he gets spoofed most of the time by my fingers but not the Sohol. The Sohol would eat right out of my hand but I'm not that courageous yet.;D

    None of my fish were over $100. The Sohol Tang was $99.99, the Asfur Angel was $89.99 and the Purple Tang was $89.99 all the others were under $50. I made it a habit to buy the smallest ones I could find because they are easier to acclimate to living in a tank.

    It's funny that you say that because I remember walking into my LFS and there was this Lemonpeel Angel in a 55g tank with three different tangs and only one rock allowing almost no shelter and this Lemonpeel looked petrofied:eek: so I asked the guy about him and he said he just got him 20 minutes ago. I was figuring on getting a flame angel but I couldn't help but rescue this fish from sure death. When I put him in my old 65g he looked at me in relief. He was now with nicer tankmates. I let him settle in for a while before adding any new fish. He pecked at one of the corals and I tapped on the tank glass and scared him off. After a while he stayed away and has been good ever since. Amazing, it was like I was scolding a child. LOL;D
