My Powder Blue Tang isn't working out

Thats a shame.... I want one soooo bad but only 75 gal right now

 

[EZMAC114]

He'd be ok in there for a while but would definitely have to upgrade

 

[carl page]

I would just hate to part with him and my current tank not fair to him

 

[EZMAC114]

PBT = Butt Holes !
Mine is starting to annoy me...
He is growing quickly which i like, but at same time he picks fights with the purple tang that was 2 inches bigger than him... now that has gone down to like 1.5 inches bigger... He tries to eat all day long every second of the day.. and he picks and some corals here and there to see if he likes it...
150Gal 6 foot long.

You guys are giving me doubt's about the PBT option...

Mine was fine until I added another Acanthurus family tang...I just wanted to see how it would go because I've heard of others doing it.

PBT and Achilles are the same genus as the most aggressive tangs we keep, Sohal & Clown tangs. The latter can turn into real monsters (they will sometimes even try to stick you, the human, with their barbs :cry:). IME; the former aren't quite as bad as that, but they definitely don't like other tangs.

If i could trade mine and get something reasonable for it i would. I nursed it back from being beat up and had torn fins. Now its fat and thinks its the boss of the tank. It was in a small breeder tank when i got him and now hes in a 150gal. He should be happy and remember he used to get beat up where he was, instead hes reflecting on others, lol.
He is awesome looking though.
