Is that a Sohal Tang? Very nice. And look it goes with the Flame Angel. There will be a couple of Tangs to be determined. I just want to give the tank some more time to make sure it's fully cycled and happy before I add some expensive boys.

Yes it is a Sohal Tang and I do agree with you about waiting until your tank has finished cycling and more mature before adding a beautiful fish like that, It was just a suggestion for your ( Help me stock my new reef ) title. I didn't mean now but in the future ............. John

A nice Chevron Tang or Kole Tang to keep your algaes in check

Unless you are going exotic, like Sohal Tang etc....

John, I'm in no rush and we are on the same page. Since I'm "re-starting" the tank Tangs will be a late introduction just to be safe. A Sohal would be a great addition. Maybe I can find a Jr. at a reasonable price.

Birdlady, I like Chevrons and Kole's too. Between the 210 and 300 I'll be adding 4-6 Tangs. I've got to do something now that I have to kick Angels and Triggers.

Wow....I love the looks of Sohal Tangs but would recommend some research depending on how many other fish you want in your tank.

(think Damsels on steroids....mean and nasty all on their own with mood swings caused by the 'roids)
