I don't know if this helps or not .. but ... in ~15 years in the hobby I have yet to see a Chevron tang anywhere near that big. I thought they maxed out at more like 10"-11" anyhow but that's in the wild. I see him getting a little bigger on you but not by much.

In my experience when you get rid of fish that you absolutely ador you just end up trying to replace him/her down the road anyway...

I think it was the surgeonfish/rabbitfish book that listed them at a 15", but, you both are probably right.....highly unlikely that our captive fish will ever reach full potential....regardless, my Chevy is the biggest chevron Ive personally seen......I guess ultimately , I just feel that a 10" fish deserves a bigger home than a 260g.....although the reality is, how many people out there have a tank much bigger than that?....I mean I know there are quite a few here and there but the percentage of tanks larger than Im doing are small Quote:
your right too man.....I know I would miss him....... even tho he's a big lipped, lumbering, clumsy(I have seen him with more than a few scratches on his head), bully of a fish....I would want another one .........I have no idea what Im gonna be doing as far as work goes, so a $200 tang may not be possible financially for me up there....
