Tank size for Tangs? An evaluation...
I think you may be of the mistaken opinion that the tang police are a group of reefers experienced with tangs who just have very large tanks.
That is not the case.
Most reefers who have 90 to 120...

I think I can answer some of the questions asked here.
The reasons why tangs are the subject of so much concern relative to their care are twofold

Please leave the fish at the LFS.
Whenever we buy a fish using a 'rescue justification' all we are doing is encouraging the LFS to order another one.
If it dies in their tank it is more likely that...

Tang feeding...
Selcon soaked nori from time to time but mostly spirulina discs.
They are hard so they stay together for a long time and therefor ideal for tangs that graze all day.

Please read my post.
You may disagree with I said (keeping two tangs in a 27 gallon is not acceptable) but how could you possibly suggest that this was "blind condemnation"?

Baking Soda.. How much?
How can you argue with a chemist. I read that baking soda raises the PH. Interestingly enough it did. Or, was it baking powder?

sick kole tang??
The kole tang tends to get a bit cut up as it darts around when it is new to the tank.
I would not risk the possibility of either ich, a fungus or minor bacterial infection setting in.
Please look...
