What size tank are all the tangs in now?

I am counting 6, I believe, is that correct? I am very impressed you have all of them in the tank and not fighting.

What is your current stock list?

I really like the Purple Tang too. The Emperor as well, I currently have one in quarantine.

Beautiful setup!

Sorry for the late reply been busy at work. I have seven of them in there. My current stock in the tank are purple tang, yellow tang, naso tang, blue tang,scopas tang, sailfin tang, and a kole tang. A few months ago i also had a powder blue, clown tang, and a gold rim tang. Now they are in the 300gal and they used to be in the 180. One thing that I learned is that you have to put them in there all together at the same time. They will fight, thats when you have to constantly move your rock work and try to get all of them to stop fighting. Also alot of water change, even when I moved them to the 300 i have to play with the rocks alot. They still fight, but they are not trying to kill, just chase each other. I know its not alot of info, but hope it can help a little. How is your emperor doing? Mine didn't make it when I move him to the 300, but I will try again later.

No problem.

Wow, so 9 tangs at one point. I have heard that a lot as well as far as putting tangs in all at once. Sounds like you have done a lot of work to make your stocking collection work. Do you see a clear dominate tang out of your bunch? And most passive?

My Emperor was supposed to be out of quarantine when I got home, but in me being gone for 2 weeks and someone else feeding him the water parameters got a little bad and he has a little bit of cloudiness in his fins. Nothing that should be a problem though, just going to do some frequently water changes and feed him a grand variety of food(kept it simple for the person feeding while I was gone) and he should be healthy and in my 210 in no time.

Can't say I am surprised it is the purple. Gorgeous fish though, I would like to get one soon.
