Two are tangs . . . one hippo and one yellow. . . up to date my yellow tang is just a tad bit bigger than a toonie and my blue tang is about a toonie size ... at max I say they grew a quarter inch. . . they haven't grown much and I've been feeding them normaly (3 meals a day) with hikari blood worms, mysis, brine shrimp and nori dried seaweed. . . I have my additives such as live phytoplankton, calcium, iodine, reef trace supplements... I also have an aquac remora pro for skimmer and a 12 gallon refugium . . . but then again thats my own experience . .

Are you wanting to be flamed. I can hear the tang police coming already man are you in for it.

Fish dont grow to their enviroment. THe reson your fish are probaly so small is malnourishment. Lets say you have a fish that get 24 inches when adult if you put him in a 12 inch tank he is still going to out grow it. I would take those tangs out before the peole on this board start voicing their opinions and you stunt your tangs (they probaly already are)
