If it does not, something is wrong as I have been chastised more than once.

I have a yellow in my 70 and it's happy happy.

Keep the tang smaller, and once it's size is edging on outgrowing the tank , you can rehome it or maybe trade for a smaller.

Most people are ok advising kole tangs, but most think none.

Be smart on the specimen you choose. I am sure, without reading all the posts, you will find a variety that you can keep, if anything, for a couple years.

Good luck and let us know what you decide.

I am more concerned about the fishes health and happiness if they are cramped into a small space like my tank in the long term. I have decided to go back to my original plan to get a wrasse, I can see my tank is not suited for any of the tangs because they are fast and far (as aquattro said)... and grow too big. I am attached to my fish very much, I know I can't sell him/her later on.
