My yellow tang is now nine years old. It's my very first saltwater fish.

The Yellow Tang is a very nice fish to have in your tank. My Yellow Tang is 7 or 8 years old. Their vibrant yellow colour is a stunning addition to your tank. These fish are always moving through the reef and bring a active roll to your reef presentation.

Generally the size of the fish is related to the size of the tank. My yellow tang was over 20 years old when it died 4 months ago. Who knows how old she was when I got her in 1997. Most of her fins were gone from the battles she lost many years ago. A 20 year old yellow tang is about the size of any adult yellow tang no bigger and only smaller if housed in a small tank.
I have a male clown fish that I have had for at least 21 years and he is still tiny because the female (over twice the size) is 22. They are both still doing well. It has been about a year since they laid their last batch of eggs. Quote:
