1" hippo tang in a 50gal
Adam,
I wouldn't. I had a small tang(4" long) in a 4' tank and now I realise even there they aren't happy. IMHO tangs need at least 5 or more feet in tank length to be happy.
If you felt your yellow was cramped in your current tank why subject another to the same thing? even if it is small right now.
You have seen how a tang or larger fish moves in the big tanks at the Vancouver Aquarium, and then seen how cramped they look after a while in a smaller tank. Why do it to another?
FYI Those tangs do grow to over 31 cm in length.
Well I'll get off my soap box now.
