well then that seems to be the answer you were looking for....take what you've learned and it is time to make a descision.

You know why don't you just get used to the fact that none of us are going to tell you it is okay. The fish store is of course going to tell you it is okay because they want to sell it. They are in the bussiness of selling fish to uneducated buyers. They need to make a living to.
But like dogboy2365 said here it is time to make a decision. I think you will make the right choice. They are some other beautifull fish out there that are not tangs. You just need to look for them.

Start planning for that bigger tank...a lot of fish stores just want to make a sale...these fish grow fast and need lots of swimming room
That said it's your choice...good luck

And.... you said earlier how you were thinking of trading in the naso when it grew to big for your tank..... remember that when you buy something and decide to trade it in to the LFS you will get only a small portion of what it is actually worth in trade... you will not get to trade a maturing naso for a juvy naso..... trust me from personal experience you will not get even half of what it is actually worth ... as findingnemo1 and redrover both so acurately stated above.... the LFS is just trying to make money so there is not chance of getting back your money ..... this seems like a poorly though out and uninformed money losing scheme....

dosent someone on Canreef here have the quote in their signature that says they are going to start banging their head against a wall while burning 100 dollar bills for their next hobby... lol... that just came to mind for some reason... lol

One point I should have mention, how I learned, I asked a lot of questions
then went on line and checked out the fish I liked, this way you learn from reefer friends plus the net,which will help in making hopefully the right choice

He's asked for advice and was given this. I think he shouldn't troll now.
