I've not long had my second Harl. Tusk and i just love them, both times they've gone straight into the tank and eaten right away, no one bothers them and they don't bother anyone!

The only time i saw they're other side was when a black trigger i had attacked some baby chromis and the Tusk got excited and joined in, so that was the end of the chromis!

But they wouldn't attack another fish and just mind they're own business.

I've just got a Red Breasted Tusk too, but hes not a permanent resident as they get very big, so we're keeping him until he gets a little bigger then he will go into a friends 10x3x3 Reef

Anyways enough babbling, great fish! would recommend to anyone!

i love them and mine is awesome it even eats flake food.!!! only thing is i see a few spots on him that kinda look like ich but he is eating alot and doesnt act like he has is.. no other fish in the tank have it.. so i just put my uv sterilizer in my sump just in case..
