    don't really know.
    i just got the cole tang, and when i got him home, i noticed he had a lump on his side. it was the same color as his body. not fuzzy, or anything.
    then i noticed he had discolorations, like darker patches, on his body.
    i've heard that cole tangs are hard to keep, and they are prone to carry desiese. don't know if it's true, but it was a beautiful fish.
    anyone heard of thier disease, or difficulty?

    Karma Dude....How old is your tank? How long have you had the fish, and did you acclimate them, if they are recently placed in your tank. What are your parameters? What's going on in your tank?
