Hi all,
We're slowly stocking a 75 gal tank. So far we have 2 small clowns, and a bi color blenny. We think our next addition is going to be a tang, but we're not sure which one.:notsure: I've read about the "tang police" and I don't want anyone coming to get me.
We were thinking a purple, but we've seen conflicting opinions. We like alot of the tangs, but we do not want the yellow, blue hippo, or convict. So I guess my question is what tang will be happy in our 75? Thanks in advance.

:notsure: So there's one for purple one against. I'm still not sure. If we could have the purple, why should he be added last? The chevron is beautiful! But, he might be just a little too expensive.

you should add him last because tangs can be aggressive and mean towards new tank mates so if they are added last they tend to be much less aggressive.
