I have to admit I think some of the points made on AP are valid. But it sounds like both you and the original poster have a good handle on how to keep your tangs happy.
There will always be exceptions to the rules.

Unfortunately I can not read AP forums the Sig lines and Tank info drowned out the content. It drives me insane

And they are a spectacular site. Makes me re-think my love of corals.

I think a lot of fish together look really good in the ocean.

After several years of searching I've finally located the last tang for my tank. It's a Fowler's tang, I picked him up last week. Unfortunately he's blind or atleast partially blind. This is the second one I've received that has been blind. Has anyone ever heard of this shipping blindness? There are no visible problems with his eyes. The dealer has been really good about it and is getting me another one no charge, but is a little stumped why the fish keep arriving blind. Here are some pics. It's definately my favourite tang.

i had a leaflip grouper go blind after moving it into another tank. im quite shure it poisoned its self and the others i moved it with, i kind of doubt thats what happened to the tangs but it is strange that it would happen twice.
