Help me decide.. yellow or purple tang

[PatW]

I have a yellow. In the stores, the yellows look gaunt to me. But mine filled out nicely with decent feeding. He is a nice fish. I also have a Kole tang which goes well with the yellow. They spar briefly at times but they don't seem to damage each other. Oddly enough, my male bengai cardinal will pretend to have a tang when dealing with the kole or yellow tang. The weird thing is that they both believe him and back off!

Purple tangs have been way more passive in my experience vs. Yellow tangs. Some YT I've had/seen have been very aggressive.

instead of yellow take a look at Mimic Lemon Peel Tang or a Chevron.
I have both with ni issues.

Take a look at this instead of the yellow. Mimic Lemon Peel Tang.
I have one with a Chevron & Convict Tang with no issues.

I got 2 purples 3" for $50 each from NYaquatic about 2 weeks ago. They are beautiful
