Hi everyone,

I've been looking at the blonde naso tang lately, I've heard of stories that these would go on a hunger strike after a few (1-2) years in the tank, some would say it's a temporary thing and the tang would be back eating in a couple of days, while some stories "didn't end" (they did not say whether the tang survived or died). I QT all my fish prior to adding to the tank, but having heard of this concerns me, any thoughts?

A much trickier fish than generally reputed. I never had one stop eating beyond the initial few months, though getting there can be a challenge. I have had both the blonde and regular die for no apparent reason.
