    I have 4 tangs in my 150, Purple, Achillies, Chevron, and Regal. They are all happy and healthy. I would caution against an Achillies unless you have a very stong turnover rate, as they like the more turbulant waters. Red Gambit wrote up a very nice piece on the fish as it was the Novemeber fish of the month on 3reef. As far as food, Seeweed selects come in brown, red, green I use all along with rods food herbivore blend, mysis, cyclopeeze, squid, pellets, and flakes soaked in vitamins. Tangs create a major bioload so I would error on a smaller amount if you want other fish in the tank. Mine are the major part of my stockinglist.
