<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I would never encourage anyone to purchase a clown tang without the capability of a huge tank or home for it eventually, and a lot of tang savvy.
I have kept mine for one year now. I had some support from others who have kept them sucessfully. Nutrition was extremely important in the juvenile stage, and Golden Pearls really made a significant difference, IMO.
Stripey Pants is reaching maturity, (he's gorgeous, I should try to pic him), needs caves and swim throughs, and exists otherwise peacefully with the other fish. He has yet to exhibit behavior that totally disturbed me (like the huge yellow tang and the kole in the 72g bolting and freaking which they have never done since moving to the 155g. These guys I've had almost four years)
He is the only fish that lets me pet him, because I insist he will only get nori that way. :D
I feel I can help provide nutritional info for tangs for the people who keep them. Many don't realize how great the demand for food is with these fish.
