wow thats a very pretty fish. now lets see if i can find one somewhere online.
You know....even if it is not listed here at SWF, if you ask them, a lot of times they can get it for you
o wow did not know that. well thats what ill do when the time comes bc not one website i found had one in stock. from what ive been reading on a achilles, they are very aggressive.

they are a very hard to keep fish .not saying impossible i had one for over a year.ich got him.but they are not one of the easier fish to keep.
this is why stores usually dont give the arrive alive guarantee

i have never had any tangs really fight .as long as the surroundings are good.room,hiding spots,order added and sizes.the yellow is one of the more aggresive tangs along with the powder blue.if you want to add another tang add it at the same time and make sure the new one is at least the same size or just a bit bigger.a friend of mine had his $30 yellow kill his $700 black tang.

LOL...I have never had any tang fights either....just an occasional tail smack...BUT the funny thing is....the yellow tang in my tank is the passive one...the sailfin and the hippo are the more aggressive ones....at least when it comes to adding something to the tank that is not glued down...they throw them around

This combo of tangs worked for me in my 135 two years back, convict,naso and yellow, the yellow was the bully of the bunch at the time but calmed down after a while, i got rid of the naso (got too big for my tank) and the convict tang i traded him in for my humu humu trigger. I wish i had an eight foot tank because i would love to add another tang with my yellow and hippo. I bet a kole tang would work with your combo never had one. i can only speak in behalf of a yellow,hippo,convict,naso,powder brown,sailfin,brown, as i had them one time or another in one of my many tanks
