Nice score. Very cool fish. You will find them a bit belligerent though.

how so? Just bossy? hmmmm might be a good idea to let that one go and wait until I've got the other fish in there first. Either way...this tank is going to be full of tiny fish and corals, with maybe the biggest fish in there being a small tang...like a kole or something.

My Kole so far plays perfectly with all his smaller tank-mates. He's too busy polishing my rock, sand and glass like Mr. Clean on speed to notice them maybe.

Individuals vary...some are mean, others are just bossy. I would imagine a pair would be more aggressive than a single. Orchid Dottys are generally the most docile of the Dottys. I had a Kole in my 90 and had to re-home it because he dive bombed my Jawfish and stressed them out too much. He also picked at Zoas as many tangs do. I would suggest a trio of Pearly Jawfish, they are thee coolest fishes to watch interact with eachother and other fish in the tank. How about Fairy Wrasses? Hogfish? LOL, I have all these fish in my tank. Hehe.

Ernie's a big fan of wrasses, so I'm sure we'll have alot of them. And LA's got a starry blenny in the diver's den for cheap...and corals and and and...hahaha this tank will be packed in no time at all.

I'm on the fence about a tang of any sort really...one day I want one, the next I don't. I think this tank would be bangerang with small to medium sized fish and some higher end corals...Pearly Jawfish sure are pretty...but the last trio I owned made home in the rockwork at the back of my tank...kinda grrrrr inducing. haha....stay tuned!!!
