They typically display patches of white when they've been stressed. That should go away quickly.

Yah, him being caught in the rock, probably caused him to freak out, which is a good chance of what caused the blotches. GL with your fishy

7 years...I'm very sorry to hear that. I've only had my Naso for 8 months and I'm already quite fond of him.

I think that they are a very slow growing tang. I had one for close to three years and it maybe grew about 1/2" or so. I know of another person with the same experience.

Please feed your fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone that has a Naso Tang that is slow growing has either poor water quality and or poor feeding!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your average Naso that you purchase at 4" in length should be pushing 12"+ within 1 year. Your average feeder goldfish reaches 12"-18", but in reality they are usually feed a crap diet and live in dirty water and reach a measely few inches in length......Alot of marine species that we commonly keep have life spans of 20+ years, when you purchase your "little" fish they are a juvinile!!! as in "baby" expect to still be caring for them when your kids have left home.your Naso possibly led a very short life with a major in starvation. Naso tangs should look like a football and are very expensive to feed!!! I should start a new thread about this epedemic in our industry.........I dont mean to pick on any one person, I think most folks strive to care for their livestock but fail due to misinformation, and simple iggnorance(they just dont know). at least with forums such as this one, we as a collective can help educate one another.
