Next Fish - Advice Please
 
Good evening

We are wanting to add to our tank now and would like some advice. We have a 90g mixed reef tank and currently have two Perculas, one Foxface, and four Royal Grammas.

For a next addition we are thinking between:
- Yellow Longnose Butterflyfish
- Atlantic Blue Tang
- Kole's Tang
- Yellow Tang
- Scopas Tang

Thoughts and recommendations please and thanks!

I would choose the kole tang, good algea eater and beautiful fish and not to expensive.

The Yellow Longnose butterfly fish are known to nip at corals and get kinda big for a 90g, but I admit they are pretty. Atlantic Blue Tang's also get to big for a 90g. I would pick the Kole tang, they are pretty and make good algae cleaners.

I checked out your tank build - your Kole looks incredible - the ones I've seen are a brown color - what makes the difference? Is it the light it is under, or is yours from a different location?

Not 100% sure where this Kole came from originally. I'll try to find out from Steve. Googling seems to show similar looking ones from Hawaii, but thems internets aren't always accurate :)

It did look very similar at Red Coral, under very different lighting, so this is it's natural color.
