    My fav tang is a Powder Blue, but I do like the Purple also. I actually saw a really pretty Clown Tang this past weekend, also very nice

    Id say go with a purple, With so many questions asked Id hold off on a touchy fish such as an achilles.

    I agree with RedGambit. Purple tangs are pretty sweet! I've also heard from quite a few people they lost their Achilles because they couldn't get them to eat.

    Are asking if you could have the two together? Or questioning about the fact that there may be(or, will be) aggression as they have same body shape?

    asking if they would be cool in the same tank due to the agression factor with there species

    ok, I get it now. I am actually not sure on those two, as I think with that size tank it could be a hit-or-miss as far as aggression goes.

    I think a clown tang & a purple tang would be cool plus they would be good together. But this is your tank & not mine.
