    I have a blonde naso and it is a great fish. Gets along with all the fish in my tank, including my yellow tang. Mine was scared of everything at first but is doing well now.

    I have one and he seems to be a model citizen. Never had any issues with him getting along with any of my other tangs.

    How big is your tank? As mentioned they can get very large.

    I had one and it was a great fish. It ate well and never bothered the other fish.

    I don't know about hard to keep alive. Getting a good healthy specimen in the first place probably has a lot to do with that though. Mines been a pig since I picked him up from AC&C.


    If you get a small one he will be ok in a 120 for awhile, but eventually he'll outgrow that. Powder blue may be a better option for that tank size, they don't get nearly as big. Both of them are beautiful fish.
