    Looks great! Is that bright yellow fish a damsel? If so, what kind?

    The green chromis and gold/black stripe damsels are probly only damsels I will have in tank. they are not very agressive fish. so I wont have to worry about catching them if they were. My next/last fish is a toss up between a yellow, purple, kole, or blue hippo tank.. I like them all and making that decision will be tough. :-[

    well you may have some trouble with ich if you go with the blue hippo and im not sure but they are pretty sensitive to stress even tho they are so pretty. i wanted one but was discouraged when i heard all of the issues but if you have a QT i wouldnt worry too much about the ich. i also heard if you are going to add a yellow tang it should be the last tang you ever put in the tank because they can be very aggressive to new tang additions. but thats just what ive heard... i think they are all beautiful fish tho if it were me i think i would pick the kole but thats just me

    Ive had better luck with blue hippo then yellow tangs in the past. I had 2 blues and probly 6 yellow tangs.. and a few naso tangs. the blue lived the longest for me.. cant remember but it was years, I think i might have even traded him in to LFS..

    My current ranking:
    1. kole $40
    2. purple $100
    3. blue $60
    4. yellow $35
