Now the 3rd I have had for 8 months and Hes doing great! i just put filter socks on the returns for my reactors and He has been doing great! got him on Pellets in the first 3weeks and once you get these guys on Pellets your golden!! soo that my story and my history with these awesome tangs! I do not suggest them for beginners!!
Boy - that's a lot of !!
I love Achilles.
Along with Nasos, they are really my dream fish. If I ever decide to get a tank large enough, I will probably give them a go. I've never had either yet though.
Not to derail this topic but I would actually like to see Nasos priced closer to what Achilles are. I think it might sway some people from putting them in unsuitable tanks. I guess you could say that about a lot of fish though....
