Convict Tang compatibility and stocking list.

Well I got my Convict Tang in from TSM and super happy with it! The Tang is healthy, eating, and active. Getting along great with the Kole, Purple, and Blonde Naso in my tank. All added at the same time.
 
Not sure if you’ve been updated but Hawaii’s imposed a ban on fish exports so you have to get a Captive Bred YT from Biota or maybe perform days of animal sacrifices to the Hawaiian gods. Kole Tang not sure if you can find them Captive Bred though I’ve heard of Sustainable Aquatics doing them. Not sure if they still do. A Tomini or Indian Ocean Bristletooth, or a White Tail, Blue Eye Bristletooth would all be alternatives.

Powder Brown and Convict are both Acanthurus, not sure how they’ll work out but be prepared to separate or even remove one.

Edit: Already have the Kole? Good!
 
Yes, I heard of the ban so might have to go with the biota yellow tang if I go that route
