| I've kind of narrowed it down to 3. Either a kole, yellow, or purple. Which one would you pick? |

| Kole. Yellows and purples are too aggressive for my liking. |

| I have a Yellow Tang, who I really enjoy. The color is really striking, especially against a blue background or purple-ish rocks. Although I haven't owned one, the Kole is really striking in appearance and has a good reputation as an algae eater and a mild-mannered fish. _________ -- SAW39 45 gal modified hex. Started and cycled August 2005.

| Let's see in 3 tanks, I have:
3 Yellow
1 Purple
1 Blond Naso
2 Hepa
1 Powder Blue
1 Sailfin
1 Soho
Yes, I like tangs.  Everyone is healthy and gets along. Of the ones you listed I'd go Purple just because of looks and durability.

| All tangs are sensitive to water quality and nutrition. That said Yellows and Purples are pretty easy.
Oh, just scroll up to my first post for my signature. |

| I'll probably go with a yellow or kole, leaning more towards a yellow. |
