Am I just not seeing this right or did Yellow Tang prices skyrocket? My local marine shop in New Jersey sells them for $659.99 Is that the price range today for them?
Hi everyone, about a week ago we noticed a growth on our sailfin tang, and it has gotten bigger, and darker in color. If someone could ID this growth and inform me how to treat it, it would be appreciated. Thanks!
Hello everyone hope yal are having an awesome day. I had a quick question that hopefully the tang experts can chime in on.

Hi everyone, I have several fish in quarantine right now and one of them is this gem tang. He is currently in a 55 gallon hypo-salinity tank with a blue jaw trigger, melanarus wrasse, leopard wrasse, and a pair of long fin clowns. They were in my 265 gallon along when I someone managed to get...
I have a very large Derasa Clam. Bought the size of a football. Lately I have noticed my Yellow Tang nipping at it. Its not taking any chunks out and there are no marks. Its like it just hitting it with its mouth. The clam doesn't seem to be bothered. It is not closing or flinching when the...
Who has a nice sized fowleri or dussumeri they are looking to sell? Will be going into my 550! Would love to add one just having trouble finding one. Let me know thanks!
I am going to buy this blonde naso tang from a local reefer, but I noticed that its colors are dull. The seller said that she’s had it since it was 1-2” and it’s about 3” now. She said that it hasn’t colored up to its normal color yet. Is this normal? Pictures provided
Hello, I have a 5 month old Fowlr tank that only has 3 fish. A 4 inches powder brown tang , a 6 inches scopas tang and a 7 inches foxface. I am thinking about adding a sohal tang and I would like to know what would be the largest tang I could get. Could the tang be 12 inches or would the size...
We've had a powder blue tang for about a month with no problems. Last night something beat the hell out of her. Chunks missing from fins. We have not added any new livestock and I have never seen anything harassing her. I've got her in an isolation box but she's not doing well. Anything...
Have a waterbox 100.3 reef tank but I was reading about tangs / dimensions of acceptable tanks and my size is not on there. Here’s a pic of the dimensions on the tank.
I’m assuming this is to small for a tang yea?
Hello,

I have a small powder blue that eats, but doesn't get any meat on his bones. From top view, he looks like a tadpole. Full belly but skinny body. Ive been trying to give him metroplex on mysis once or twice a day but im not really sure he's eating it, he's shy. He will eat non medicated though...

I got this tang yesterday from pet co at first he was hiding inside of the rock formation but I came home from work today to see him just laying there should I try and return him or assume he’ll get used to the tank
Every fish I add the last 3 weeks mysteriously dies. There’s no signs of parasite or disease on the fish at the time of death. So I had an orange shoulder tang and all of a sudden he has a deep slash on him and he was found breathing heavy in the corner, sadly died hours later. I had him for 2...
Hello all,
Hoping to get some advice. Just received an order of fish that included an
Algae blenny, Tomini tang and a few other smaller fish
Everyone has been in a quarantine tank for 3 days so far. Just noticed a wound on the tomini tang and not sure if this could be uronima or a bite from...
Recently had swung by my lfs and noticed that slightly larger sized Wrasses and Tangs are priced higher than their smaller counterparts.
I left really thinking about it since I’ve never really thought about fish size when making a purchase unless I am stocking a smaller tank etc.
So my fellow...
I have a blue eyed kole tang in my tank and it constantly seems to nibble on my hammer/frogspawn. It sort of just sucks it into its mouth and doesn’t chomp as the heads don’t get cut and the coral doesn’t even react to it but it’s weird. They’re both green so idk if it’s confused or what lol but...
Hi,
I have a Tang and he's been in my tank for about 2 weeks now. He started getting discolored spots. I have done many google searches and can't seem to find a photo or description that exactly matches. I've seen that it could be ich, an infection or just from stress, so I thought I would just...
