Excuse me for beeing fancy with scientific naming. Any way I got my first Naso tang from DPA, thak you Charlie. YahoO
He is getting cleaned.
question, does he turn dark to signal he needs cleaning or does the cleaning make him darken?
a beauty for sure.

good question :think)
Cleaner wras takes turns between all fish, but I haven’t noticed coloration change. I was plaing arround with esposure compensationn on my cell phone camera, maybe thats why some pics darker?
I’ll keep checking
Nice looking fish. All puckered up and ready to go! Yeah, they often comunicate with the cleaners by a color change, or attude change, like hanging at a different angle in the water, mouth open to signal non agression. or something like that.
Congratulations Rosti. Looks nice and much colorful than what I had. Keep us posted.
That’s a good looking fish Rosti. Very nice indeed. Makes me wish I had a bigger tank.
Nice looking fish, love mine and they get big with the streamers off there tails when they mature.
Thanks guys. Tolga!!! nice to see you here :BEER GolfC
Hey Tolga, welcome to the board! Feel free to make a new thread to introduce yourself and tell us about your tank. You from Delaware?
Mine was my favorite for the couple months that i had it. fast swimmer, personality, good eater (mine loved broccoli). And it would change to its darker color, open its mouth and swim down next to the coral banded shrimp for a cleaning…the banded would actually hold the corner of the naso’s mouth with it’s large pincher, and clean it with its smaller ones, very cool to watch!. Sadly though, it died. i noticed a small abrasion on its eyebrow area (if fish had em) that got bigger and deeper as the week went on, then just suddenly died, but kept eating like a pig until hours before. (and the params were good btw). I do want to get another someday, but i gotta admit that the other tangs actually get a chance to eat now without it there, and the way it relieved itself (crapped) constantly bombing the tank, i swear twice as much came out then what went in! that wont be missed.
I know they’re fast growers, but if i ever come across a little one ,it’ll be hard not to bring it home!
Good luck! beautiful fish!

Thank you. I will do the thread to introduce myself soon. I was in DE for 5 years but know I leave in Turkey.
Thanks to both my brother in-laws (Rosti and my sisters husband), I got hooked with this hobby. I have set up my aquarium in my office, but I wish it was at home.
My tank is about 145 gallons + sump. Sump is about 25 gallons. I have started on March 3rd, 2010 so I am pretty new to this hobby.
I will make a list and let you guys know when I open up the thread. Will add some pictures as well.
