what is e ideal number of tangs to keep for a 3 or 4 footer tank?

:thanks:

3 footer ONE, 4 footer can keep 2 or 3 max, go for BT, PT or YT, put them all together or the last one to go into the tank got to be bigger to prevent bullying esp the YT can be quite aggressive.

Mind you they eat and shit a lot.

IMO i dun suggest BT... they can grow much bigger than any of the zebrasoma tang you mentioned....

Ya loh, Paracanthurus Hippatus or the common blue tang can grow up to 31cm! As compared to the Zebrasomas with a average size of 20+cm.

Actually, I have been seeing alots of people keeping tangs even the Nasos in 2ft! I think the "Tang Police" will have to do something about it! :evil: How???? Dispar?????
