LOL Greg......


I love my PB.......one of my fav fish in the tank for sure......I agree with others tho....get one from someones tank if you decide to go for it....

I also was really fond of the regal I had before......he was a bit of a turd....... he ate acans and was constantly picking frags up off of my frag rack and dropping them wherever he felt like......still loved him tho.....

both my present PB and former regal were/are jerks.....but only to certain fish.....some fish were ok to add and some fish , not so much.....one thing for sure is......every fish is its own individual.......we can generalize all we want but, there is always an exception to the rule....

AGREE ON THE SOHAL!! currently that is my favorite fish in my tank... had no issues yet with aggression... and I currently house a large hawaiin naso, bariene, sailfin, yellow, a small tomini and one I am still trying to identify... tail of a bariene, pattern similar to a cole yet closer to the color of an atlantic blue.... but the most active one is the sohal by far... cool personality too.... still plan to get an achilles and a purple... and leave the pb for the fowler... seems they are the biggest jackasses of the tangs...imo...

Default Powder blue a poor choice

http://wetwebmedia.com/powdbluetg.htm

Choose the regal because your chances of success in keeping the powder blue tang is poor.
I agree with the advice to get one from someone who has already had it for a while if you are set on getting one.

Powder blue tangs typically live for a while than get sick for no apparent reason and die often taking a few of its tank mates with them.
