Great decision Starry

Remember he needs film algae. You will observe that he will be sucking film algae off the glass.
Because he is a tang and will be prone to ich also feed him garlic extreme (or garlic extract soaked) nori (dried seaweed which you can buy in the asian section of safeway or similar store.

If they are the hard kind soften them up with garlic extract and selcon. You can buy softened green food as well. I would save your money and buy nori from the asian section of a supermarket though.
The kole sucks up its food rather than munching on it.
