Powder Brown Tang

[sprinklerman500]

I just acclimated my newest member to the tank!He is sooooooo pretty in my tank!The tank is a 150 gallon reef tank.Does any one have any suggestions for me on how to keep him happy or have had experience with a Brown Powder Tang?

I'm sure its the same as with any tang... just make sure he gets his nori. Also... he prolly needs to be the last tang added or you'll likely have some aggression issues.

By nori you mean his veggies?I do have a smaller blue regal tang,will this be a issue?They seem to be getting along good so far.I was wanting a yellow but I guess its to late now?

Nori = seaweed.

I'm sure the powder brown will be fine with the smaller hippo, so I wouldn't worry about that. How big is your tank? You may be able to add the yellow tang later but neither of those the tangs is likely to love it.

This all goes on the assumption that a powder brown has much the same temperament as the powder blue... Which is known as an aggressor.
