Pros:	Very cool colors
Cons:	Tends to hide a lot...considered an ich magnet

This fish is very hardy. Once I thought I saw ich on mine...I was going to treat it and the spots disapeared before I could. It eats anything I put in the tank and is a very aggressive feeder. Blue tangs can also be kept with other tangs in a large enough tank. In general it needs at least 75 gallons and places to hide. Make sure to quarantine before placing it in the main tank.
