Hey guys. I will be upgrading to a 6’ x 28”w x 26” h with external overflow sometime in the next 6 months and I’m doing my research on the 4 subspecies of tangs.
I have mostly smaller fish now in my 60 galling but I overstock and probably have 15 to 20 fish in there. Most pretty small. I also...
Hello, I had a quesiton, could I have two sailfin tangs, a unicorn tang and a yellow eye kole tang together in the same tank. Currently In the tank is one sailfin tang that has been there for about three months alone.
my carpenters flasher wrasse is laying down on my acclimation box and breathing heavily, tomani tang is breathing heavily but still swimming, looks like the new chocolate tang took his spot in his rock so I celared in for him but as I am writing this he is starting to lay on his side. He had...
I'm about 50% of the way into my new tank build. Rocks already cooking in heated trough in the garage for a month so far.
Will be a 160gal tank, 54"X28"X24" (LXWXH). This will upgrade from my current 70gal of 5 years.
Regarding mixing of tangs and aggression towards each other, if my plan is 1...
Hi,
I currently have Purple tang in my 110.4 gallon Waterbox mixed reef tank.
I’m planning on adding a gem tang and a yellow tang. They are the same size as my purple tang.
I already have a fox face and a much small blue tang (3-5cm).
Am I being an idiot trying to add the gem and yellow...
Hey guys, so I have 2 tangs currently, 1 purple and 1 blue, I’ve had them in the tank for maybe little over 3 or 4 months. My LFS has a Powder Brown Tang and I’ve been eyeing him for about a few weeks now but I was worried about tang aggression, my blue and purple get along great but I’ve...
Hey all!
just finished the new 400 build. Lots of rock, lots of Tonga branch/plate, and lots of aggression from what we’re happy healthy tank mates for past 14 months in a 230g.
background: all tank mates were in a 230g. Had a bad breakout of ick and broke the group up into 3 separate tanks...
Hey Guys, so I have a general question with Tangs, so I currently have a 120 gal tank, I put in a Purple Tang and a Blue Tang at the same time maybe about 2-3 weeks ago, I was wondering if it was too late to put in a Powder Blue tang into the mix, I’ve had tangs before like Mimic Tangs...
Hi all! Happy Weekend!
currently I have a Purple Tang and a Foxface. They get on completely fine but like brothers sometimes do want there own space.
I was thinking about adding another yellow tang.
would a third calm aggression or would it spike some more trouble?
currently a 200 litre tank...
I’m looking for some stocking advice as I work towards a 200g build. In my old tank things were simple- 2 clownfish, one burrowing goby, one yellow tang, etc. One fish or pair of each type.
However many fish descriptions state “only 1, unless kept in a large tank.” Like gobies etc. Which begs...
Would like to gather community opinion on the most aggressive tang they have personally experienced.
in my tank maintenance days I have personally witnessed sohal tangs murder an entire tank. What tang belongs in the asylum in your opinion?
Even though tangs live and move in large congregation...
So I have 4 juvenile tangs. 3 in QT, 1 in my DT.
My display tank has a 2.5” inch Blue tang that has been there for a year.
My QT has a 2.5” yellow tang, 3.5” Achilles, and 3.5” Powder Blue.
I have good filtration and so plenty of water changes, so I’m curious what everyone thinks about...
What’s up everyone, I just purchased a 3-4 inch Achilles tang which is currently in quarantine. Any long term Achilles tang owners out there? I’ve got 3 tangs that are 100% quarantined with prazi and copper and have been sitting in my 75 gallon holding tank along with 3 wrasses waiting for my...
Hi!
been on and off this forum in the shadows for a long time but finally decided to register for more advice :) so hello!
woke up today to find my immaculate flasher wrasse has taken quite a nipping last night. Fin damage almost down to the body so fingers crossed it’ll heal all ok! Seems to...
Hey guys.
I got an 130 gallon reef tank and I would like to add another tang. I already got the tomini tang and the mimic tang. Would be nice if someone who got both could tell me with which tang they get along :)
Thx
Considering a Lavendar Tang. I don’t aee much info on them here so please share your experiences. I have a 210 gal reef I’m planning a stocking list for. I also intend to keep coral but with a minimalist aquascape, so plenty so plenty of swimming room. I also plan to include a Convict Tang, Kole...
Hi R2R friends,
We're thinking about adding a tang to our 100g tank to combat the hair algae showing up in the tank, we have snails but thought a more active eater would help. Want to get some thoughts from the community on these two tangs
Does anyone have experience with them? I'm...
I love tangs and I would love to have one of every genus eventually. I am wondering what experience people have with the Prionurus genus. I am specifically interested in P. Biafraensis and P. Chrysirus because they are tropical species and smaller. Pictures welcomed!

Hi Guys/Girls,
My tank is a 130.4 Waterbox, all paramaters are fine (I check regularly) and fish/corals are all for the most part healthy and happy.
The issue i'm having is to do with my tangs and aggression towards one another. I started with:
1 yellow tang,
2 clowns and a bunch of anthias...
Tonight I ran into, without question, one of the strangest things I ever have in all my days keeping fish.
I recently finished adding my fish back to the DT after a long fallow period for ich. They’ve been back about two weeks, and tonight I cut the lights off a little early to acclimate a new...
Hi everyone, hope you’re doing well. Today I introduced a 2 inch yellow Kole eye tang into my 75 gallon tank and I’m having some aggression. I currently have a canary blenny, a cardinal, a flasher wrasse, a leopard wrasse, and a sleeper head goby. My leopard wrasse was in the sand when I...
