Blue Hippo Tang - are they all mean?

[Seriak]

Man, you guys are scaring me now. I have had mine in quarantine for the last 4 months because of and ich problem, but now that I have a handle on that I am scared to put it in the DT because of all your comments.

I'm not sure if the attitude comes from who's first in the tank. My trigger went in after the hippo, maybe that's the problem?

I really do think its up to each individual fish how they are going to behave.

My Hippo tang has zero attitude. It is very timid and lives in my Palmers Blue Milli 90% of the time. It only comes out to eat and swim around once in a while. It has not harassed any other fish in my tank. Mind you, I bought it as a small 1 1/2" - 2" juvenile at the time.

Now, my Purple Tang. That is a different story. It is a complete jerk to any new livestock. It harassed the crap out of my new Sailfin but has finally laid off a week later...
