HELP HELP HELP with yellow tang

[bv_reefer]

ya but my sailfin is 1/2 the size and healthy as heck, and eats 2 sheets of seaweed a day so whatever...lol

46.... 33.....
both too small for tangs imo......
I really want a yellow tang for my 80G, but I'm thinking he might not be completely happy in it. I'm undecided......
In the end, the fish always wins

Tang's are swimmers...tank to small...stressed out which won't help to get rid of any kind of pest

boys, take the arguing back and forth to PM please.

I think a YT in a 46 is reasonable, although they are not what I'd call susceptible to disease. I had my YT for 8 years and it never got sick, even when it was in a 45g tank.
Sailfins in 33g tanks is pushing it, since they can grow much larger than a yellow.

Make sure the temp is stable, all water parameters are acceptable and feed a good selection of food, including garlic soaked nori and the YT should be fine.
