well for 4ft i think is really huge ...

cause i only wanted to keep tang.... is 3ftx2ftx2ft enough??? u noe the price with sump n pipe?

NO tang are schooling fish in the wild and need very big space, with 3by 2 by2 i recommend you not to have any tangs. Even a 4 wiuld only allow you to have verysmall species of tang for example those from the zebrasoma species.

i have check with tank_maker.. i was quote 595 for a 3ftx2ftx2.5ft with sump n pipe.. + stand...

kinda xpensive...

i still planning to upgrade.. .cause i haven really get a chance to discuss with my parent...

if i getting thsi tank it will be 112 gallon...

i believe with this i can keep a tang... izzit true.. correct me if i am wrong..

i decided to keep yellow n powder blue...

tangs are just more succeptible to disease I suppose. or so I've read from books and people who keep them.
