in the process of re-stocking and i was interested in making an achilles tang the focal point of the tank. i have a 300g and was wanting to know if an achilles could thrive and what tangs would go well together with him (purple, yellow, naso, chevron, etc) thanks

achilles tangs are hard to keep. Do you know that? j/wing before we go on.

I had to give mine away, he's always fighting with my powder blue, sailfin tang and blue hippo.

yes, i know achilles are hard to keep and that their requirments are very involved, but for such an awesome fish i am willing to meet it's needs. So i would like to know what tangs/ tankmates will live peacefully based on others personal experiences. thanks

I would contact DragonSlayer. He has a 180 with four or five tangs. He's had them all over long term, several years. Yellow, purple, sailfin, achilles and a powder blue I think.
