Tang Owners Beware
 
I saw this while browsing the internet. You can definitely see why they urge you to have a large tank when keeping surgeonfish.

Thats huge! I figure you'd need at least a 70 gallon tank for that one.

Thats huge. Pity he had to kill it so as he could get a record.

Ya, that's what most of fish where that they where eating on Survivor

I was just referring to the sentimental value we place on them as pets...that was all. I am sure you would be sad if I came along and killed your tang in your tank so I could have fish for dinner

Did you mean 700g? Maybe a 7,000g?

That type of tang available in the aquarium trade?

Probably but not very common. 28" max length...
