Have a situation here... Naso with Unicorn tang

[my2rotties]

Just wanted to say your tank is my dream tank. I saw it long ago when I bought this house with the 44g in it. I believe your tank is an exception to many rules with all the free swimming space... I'm going to look at your webcam now... and drool like I always have.

The only fish that seem to dislike each other (mildly) are the vlamingi/yellow...and the literatus (female)/elegans (male). The unicornis has no problem with anyone and the vlamingi just a big submarine in low gear.

My experience is...if the tank is large enough you won't have any problem at all.

In case you are wondering...yes, I'm concerned they might outgrow me...and the N. literatus was an accident as I attempted to purchase N. unicornis and got her by mistake. (easy to do when they are juveniles)

If you want to watch their behaviour, check out the webcam below. My personal experience with Nasos in general is that they are pretty laid back overall.

Thanks for all the advise. The Unicorn is in the 90g still, and I spend more time interacting with her then before and she seems to be doing better. Lee brought the Unicorn's old tank mate here to keep her company, but although she shows a feeding response, she is still not eating. She is very fat and healthy looking so I am not overly concerned just yet.

I do not want to risk my other fish and this is why I asked if it might or might not be an option. Thank you everyone for helping me decide.
