i have never owned one but when i worked at NJ pets we had one and we had to keep it alone. After it ate a toby puffer and bit a pbt and bird wrasse we knew he would have to be alone. I would only keep one with larger fish, what ever fits in its mouth is history, and if it it cant it might just get a bite (you could see the bite marks clearly on the pbt and bird wrasse)

How often and what do you feed it? The smaalest fish in my tank is a Huma Trigger about 3" long everything else is 6-7" or bigger.

It is, but i have not tried to keep it with any large, truely aggressive fish, your tangs are huge and im assuming pretty aggressive? I plan on upgrading this summer and when i do i want to try to put a few fish in with him like groupers and triggers. See how he acts with BIG fish :happyfish

I have had mine for a few months..He is in a 125gal with a lionfish pinktail trigger yellow tang and a dogface puffer. He is pretty calm until he gets hungry or when i put food in the tank. He picks on the puffer sometimes and will grab a piece of some of the fish when he is in a feeding frenzy but immediatly lets them go when he realizes they arent food. Here is mine
