sorry guys i know i know we've all seen this fish
but i have wanted one for a long time and i got him in today from SWF.com and he looks GREAT, well untill B.J. (my 7" yellow tang) seen him, but hes leaveing him alone now and hes starting to come out and explore a bit already in the first day!
and something for the tang police to call me out on hahaha
and no SWF if my yellow tang decides to start messing with him and stresses him out and he dies im not going to try to get my money back...BUT I DO WANT THE OTHER NEON GOBY I ORDERED sniff sniff, they will only give me credit =(

i wouldn't add another tang to the mix, probably. we could tell you for sure with a full-tank pic.

This is pretty funny... 23 fish with 5 tangs (one of which you claim to be 7" but it doesn't look that big to me). And you want to add a naso??? Are you just trying to start some controversy or what?

I wouldn't add any more fish and consider yourself lucky that everything has worked out for you so far.

maybe haha
i dont think ill ever get the nerve to add another tang to the mix, becuase of the tangs i had befor the powder blue is the reason i never got one, i asked my fellow reefer buddy and he said it should probly work, and saif if anyof them have a problem with it, its going to be the yellow tangbut i said to heck with it and got one and they are getting along fine right now, my friend says when the PBT gets used to the tank and grows alittle he will over take the tank as the HOSS and not the yellow tang, but he also said a naso would also work in the mix but i would have to add him soon or the powder blue would kill him if he gets astablished befor i add him
i think i will just forget adding another tang...maybe in 20 years when the kids are grown and out of the house (i hope haha) and turn one of their rooms into a 800 gallon reef i will get one haha, maybe a valmingi naso...them are AWSOME, but they get to big for my little ol 135,... 24" long after only 6 years
