    I have two sailfins with a purple tang, they also eat anything that hits the tank. Although they prefer the Nori with the garlic already in it. They don't seem to like any other types and just taste them instead.

    I would not suggest the chevron. that is alot of tangs in that space. that clown will be very aggressive.
