Honestly now! I can't believe anyone would condone placing a tang in anything smaller than an 8 ft tank! It must feel like a prison for these poor fish!
:D Just kidding... I intend on keeping a tang or two in my 4ft 90 gallon when it gets setup in the new house. :D |
How about we just leave RC out of the discussion.
Thanks |

I have 3 tangs in my 10 gallon

I keep a blonde naso in a 75g for about a year now he has grown from3'' to about 6'' and is extremelly happy swimming against my koralias. I've heard of people having problems with them growing,I've allowed some macros to grow in my display so he can graze when he feels the need and I give him a meatier diet than most do. Tangs are one of my favorite fish,everyone I've ever had ate from my hand allmost immediatelly,when you look into the tank they swim right infront of you to be admired lol Carefull with that powder brown you look at them wrong and they get sick not to mention the powder blue and brown I tried just hid under the rocks all the time.

I have a powder brown that has never given me a problem. Hes my favorite fish as he is always swimming around and very active. He is in a 90g and I plan on possibly adding another tang in the future.
|
I also have PB that doesnt give me any problem, he is a very active swimmer, though he does enjoy chasing my Lemarcks Angel. The PB is definatly one of my favourite fish to watch! He is usually the first to rise in the morning even before the lights go on, and one of the last to go to sleep at night, definatly has a personality of his own!

Here goes...
Well, in light of the "pro multi-tang" atmosphere, here's my list:
Naso Tang Regal Tang Sailfin Tang 2 Mimic Tangs Clown Tang Powder Brown Antlantic Blue Kole Tang (And that's just the tangs) I keep these is a 150 gal-that's 4 ft long-but really deep. I have about 150 lbs. of live rock in the tank and another 80 in the sump. I have never had a problem with fighting, being territorial or eating. They are all kept fat, happy and sociable. I think that as long as you pay attention to the fish, they will let you know what is working and what isn't. People may have their "rules" about what can or can't be done, but every case, tank, situation is different-and not all rules apply. I say go with your gut and let your fish tell you how to proceed. |
^^^^^^^^^^
Thats a nice list.. |
