Hi All,

After seeing some large nasos at a LFS I wondered do only the male nasos have streamers? Do the females not? I ask because he had a blonde with streamers and a larger regular that did not.

Also would you be able to keep nasos as a 'pair' - obviously know that the tank size would need to be tremendous. I know a few people out here have 'mated pairs' but could not find any info recently.

Isn't two of the same tang a bad idea? In our experience the naso's seem to be much less aggressive then other tangs.

Just wondering.

i've seen naso keep together as pairs, i believe only the male's have streamers and i think there darker as they age as well. im not sure how you would actually pair them up but my guess just get em small male and femal and im sure with in time their pair up.. would say anything over 300 gallons should be suitable for a pair of naso's.
