not bothered in the least.. years ago 30-40ish was the minimum for a yellow tang, but now the self proclaimed tang police have inflated that to a standard swimming pool.

also if you have been snorkiling in Haiwii you will have noticed the larger tangs swim all over the place, the juviniles tend to stick to one area as long as there is food, and in the 50+ times I have been snorkiling in haiwii I have even noticed if there is an abundance of food the adults dont stray far at all. so compair that to our tanks, abundance of food, strong curent to give them exercise.. if the tank is set up right there is no reason an aproperate sized tank can't be in it.. my problem would be a full growen fish that can't turn around in its home or even get off a little blast of speed.
