I need some info about your sohal tang(obviously only if you own one, or have owned one). I have a naso, and am going to add an atlantic blue tang shortly, and then I am either going to try a PB or a sohal and keep getting mixed comments regarding sohals. I know the pb will be pretty aggresive and be the dominant tang, but that will not be a big problem because he will go in last of all my fish. But the sohal kind of intrigues me, because he is a lot more hardy and will not have as many health problems as the pb. But I hear that they can be unholy terrors, sometimes, and other times they can be very relaxed big babies, kind of like a naso tang. Now I have never owned one, but I have seen quite a few at stores, aquariums, and friends houses, and the ones I have seen, seem very calm, and very non-aggressive. So why do they get the reputation of being bad boys so often? I have witnessed sizes from 4-12" and they all have been in tanks with other tangs and the other tangs seem way more aggressive or crazy. So all you sohal owners(or past owners) please give the full run down or your dude and let me know everything about their behavior, interaction w/the other fish, what size was he when you got him and what size know, what other fish are in the tank and when were they added, etc. As much info as possible is great. I would much rather get a pb, but don't know if I want the trouble, and a sohal is almost as pretty, but a lot hardier. Thanks, Jolly
