How big is he? if he is small than could be a male cause the tail has slight streaming to it. cause usually with a female there isn't much curving.

He has a 125 that is pretty much empty, I think he'll be ok for a while.

Ahh that is excellent news His sig only had a 75g listed and I was a little concerned.

I've recently seen a naso that is about the same size that someone had unknowingly kept for a while in a 55g and now that he's in a much bigger reef he's hiding after 2 weeks .. conditioned to staying in a small space, not knowing he's free to swim around.

Very very happy to hear he's got a bit more space

Mike, that Naso was a male. It's stremers will develop more with age but the female's tail is more squared off.
