Anyone have an Achille Tang

[lunner]

Hi

So anyone have an Achille Tang for awhile now? Doing well?
How aggressive is yours?

:bump:Sorry to hijack your thread, but I myself am thinking of adding one to my display and would like to see some feedback on this tang as well.

I went through 4 before finding a fifth one. They need to be QT'd and most likely coppered. Key is if they will eat during this 3-5 week period.

The one I have is in a 120g and is no where as 1/5th as aggressive as a powder blue that I have in another tank.

I've had him for about 4-5 months now.

Thanks for your input; do you have the Archilles with another tang?

There are 2 Yellow tangs and an unknown bristle mouth type tang in there.

I have this one (close to 4") for almost 4 months now.
It is kept with a Spotted Yellow Eye tang (3" or so). They are doing fine together in a 4' long tank.

I also think it is less aggressive then a Powder Blue I had before.

I just love the way Achille swim. Very fast and agile!

I have had an achilles for 2 years now. Got him when he was 3 inches and now he's about 7. He is in a 150 with a mustard tang and a purple tang, a blue ring angel and a zebra eel. He loves to eat green and red nori. I also have a Koralia 4 in there so he has a strong current to swim against.

They are phenominal fish. Be careful during selection, make sure it is eating before you buy it.
