    Tang police - what are my chances?

    My partner has fallen in love with a PBT and wants to add it to our tank which already has a juvenile mimic tang. The PBT looks like a healthy adult - not massive - but not a juvenile. What are my chances it will work out? It is a 500 litres peninsula tank with an average stocking (I would...

    Mimic Tang care. What is the actual minimum sized tank?

    Hi all, I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience with these tangs (Mimic/Chocolate tang). I've gotten multiple different answers on whether I can keep one in my 90g reef. Some say a minimum size of 125g, others 90 and there were even a few 75g. I already feed nori strips to my one spot...

    Tang Tank Size

    I want to keep a kole yellow eye tang in my larger tank (100 gallons) but some of the other tangs in there are large so I don’t want it to get picked on. The kole tang is about 1 inch at my LFS. I wanted to know if I could keep it short term in my 2ft, 35 gallon tank.

    Tang took a leap

    Last night I was tinkering with my skimmer after lights out and I must’ve startled my Tomini Tang because he took a flying LEAP out of my tank - I don’t mean he causally hoisted himself over the side I mean he took flight. It was so fast that all I heard was a splash and then wild flapping...

    Help Choosing Stock Please

    so I’m just finishing up a new 120 gal “consolidation” build. I took all 7 of my tanks down and consolidated bits of each into one tank. It was getting to be too much and overtaking my life. The problem with consolidating everything into one tank is that I can’t decide on which fish to keep. My...

    Can I keep them? Tang police

    I currently have a 90 gallon tank with a Tomini tang, foxface, and a few others, but those two are my main worry. Anyways, where I live, I only really have one place to put my tank and it’s right below my TV. Because of that, I can’t have any hanging lights or it would block my TV. Well a local...
