not jumping down your throat, we go through this every couple years, where the size of a tank for a tang gets over inflated. the general rule of thumb is the average you see in books, which is 40 gal for most tangs. I personally don't think this is enough for a mature tang, but lots have had success with it for a long time.

there was discussion on the board about 5 years ago on how long the tank should be but this also was a mute point as if you have a tone of flow it can make the same effect as a longer tank.

the only thing I wanted to do here is stop an over inflated rule of thumb before it gets over inflated again and we'll have people telling us you need a 150 for a tang.
