My reef and 9 tangs in the same tank. Chocolate tang moved to the frag tang to clean.

Watch "Coral update on the 180g reef tank." on YouTube
 
Cell phone pic caveats apply, but here are 3 of my tangs... pyroferus is hard to photograph (love his color!), LT tang in back, and naso in front. The scopas not shown. Foxface is peaking out below.

Here’s a pic of my Gem I picked up myself for Christmas. Seems Gems are getting more common these days. Still one of my favorites.

Off topic but how long have you had that radiant wrasse? I had one back when I was a kid in the 90s that was super easy to care for but I’ve tried ordering a few recently and they have been DOA or dead by the next morning. My LFS says they have the same issue with them.

I've had the Radiant Wrasse for over a year now. It took 3 tries to get one that would make it. All 3 Radiant's came from LA. The first one buried its self in the sand in the QT tank then over a week later it came out for about an hour then died. The 2nd was delivered in pretty bad shape and appeared stressed out. Only lived about 24 hours. The 3rd one arrived, went into QT and ate right from the beginning. Seemed to have a normal sleeping schedule. Went though QT treatment with flying colors and now is in one of my DT's. Interesting enough the Radiant wrasse quarrels with the Gem Tang often, which the radiant holds his ground.
