Agree 100%. IME they seem shyer than regular naso. Beautiful fish and very docile. Not quick growers as was already mentioned but they will outgrow a 120 in a year or two depending on starting size and your feeding habits.^Any fish can be a jumper.
Blonde naso tangs are a gentle giant. They get huge, though, but don't grow prohibitively fast. Treating for internal parasites is a must. They'll eat algae, but aren't as big of an algae eater as most other tangs.
Naso's (as every fish in the genus Naso) get HUGE. IMO, there's much better tangs to work with.
I've worked with some that approach 16 inches, and the 8,000 gallon display they were in didn't seem like enough room for them.
Thankfully in captivity they don't seem to get as big as Vlamingi's, but they are still a giant fish. They do stay pretty peaceful though, that double set of surgeon scalpel's on their tail seems to keep most fish at bay with relatively little physical altercation required.
