    Hello all, i was thinking of getting a new Tang next week (my LFS has buy 1 get 1 free on fish) and i was thinking of either a Sailfin, Naso or a Powder Blue. From what i have read a powder blue can get ich easily like most others. If anyone has any of these or has had, let me know what you thought of them.

    Well the only LFS that sells saltwater thats within reasonable driveing distance is a Petland. They have deals like this all the time. Sometimes I get deals that no one else does (frequent visitor lol). They also had a nice peice of frogspawn that i may pick up.

    oh ok. I thought when you said "new" tang, you were talkin about getting another. I would absolutely go with the sailfin as they don't need quite as much room as the other two you listed. They are a beautiful fish and are fun to watch.,
