Half black mimic tang

I have one and gets along with my other fish. He does seem to nip lps which is weird. Hasn't done any damage.

I've noticed mine will pick at the skeleton and the plug. I've not noticed any tissue damage. Seems to be a cool fish. Chilled, not spastic like the yellow tangs. How big is yours and how long have you him? One weird thing about mine he won't eat nori. *shrugs*

I'v had him 2 months. He is between 2" to 3". I haven't tried Nori in a long time. I usually feed him a veggie flake that he loves.

Cool, I've had mine since Thanksgiving. Seems to be doing really well, cool fish to have for sure. Thanks for your replies.
 
I just bought one today! I certainly hope he stays away from my corals! Mines about 3", and I also bought a 1.5" Hippo with him. I was told they'll get along
