Nice fish. They are quite aggressive. I have a large one.

This one came from a friend. It is very peaceful in my tank. Even with a yellow tang. Kevin said it was mean every time he added a new fish though. Luckily its my last big fish for now.

I have one that I got several months back. I got him when he was smaller than a quarter. He has not been aggressive at all. Very laid back. He just swims back and forth and is easy to feed. I give him Nori, Mysis and Brine. He also gets the occasional Spetrum pellets.
Great fish and really nice colors.

I will try to get some current pictures of the one I have. It would show a good progression of the fish as it matures since I have had this one since it was so small. I will get to work on that.

It's about four inches now. I got it when it was smaller than a quarter. It was the smallest one I had ever seen. Growing quite well. I will take some current pictures and post them up with some of the younger shots so you all can see the growth.

yeah, when I had him, he was good with the fish that was already in there but when i introduced another fish he would go at it and did it for days but then calm down eventually.
