Reefwars the problem with buying a small tang with the intent that a reefer will upgrade soon is that despite best intentions things get in the way; financial, divorce, kids etc.

I agree with doch, I could never part with a tang once I had it for a few years. I could with a wrasse and many other fish but not a tang. They, like clownfish tend to get personalities.

i know that and i do the same i get attached and its true stuff does happen but it wouldnt work for me as theres no one here to give it to but in ft mac you could easily give it to someone in edmonton theres hundreds of reefers there who would take a pb or achiles in a heartbeat but i completely agree not a good practise and i would never tell that to a newbie but doch is experienced so i figured id shoot it out as im sure he knows plenty of reefers
