Depends which tang you want to buy... Some probably shouldn't be in anything less than 200G, while other smaller ones I'd recommend 75-100G.. Some people will preach 6ft minimum till they die, while others will say 4ft is OK.

Thought we covered this?

None will work in a 34G tank.

I am guessing this one can go in any size tank but 1/4 cup per 2 litres is ideal...

LMAO!:lol:
Saltwaterseahorses: Do yourself and Tangs a favour and pick yourself up a saltwater fish guide-it will really help you understand more about what you need to make Tangs thrive-any marine fish for that matter. Good luck!

Coleus 03-05-2010 06:44 AM

Did not plan to post my tangs because I cried so hard when comparing my picts with Kiens picts. However for the sake of canreef spirit. Here they are

Awww ... come on now. I have more ... :lol:

Can't take credit for the school of convicts .. Linda took that at a gem of a snorkel spot that she found on her own. I was resting from my own dive trips at the time so I hope to check it out myself maybe later today. The other pictures she took include an incredible specimen of dussumieri tang.

These are mine though:

Lavender tangs..

This is the only yellow I managed to snag on camera yesterday on my dives:

I think I have others from snorkeling but I have to sort through some 800 pictures to find them!! I've been going nuts with the camera this trip. :redface:

Naso..
