It's not a Kole, lacking the yellow eyes.

I'm thinking it's a bristle tooth tang, it is at least  a member of the Ctenochaetus genus.

Its not a kole. it dose pick at the rocks quite a bit. Its hard to get a pic. most of the pics come out very yellow. its a dark color with a slight yellow in its tail and top fin. It has blueish spots on the first half of its body. it and the yellow tang i got are very active and very health. defiantly two of my favorites.

Ctenochaetus truncatus - I take that back after looking a little closer I need a better view . Can you get a side shot for a better ID?

I still say it's one of the Bristletooth tangs. Most likely C. Binotatus

Clown look like ocillaris to me

Joel - C. Binotatus is called a blue eyed kole - gotta love those common names.
I also believe from the photo that the clowns are ocillaris.
