Clown Tangs….are they that rowdy?

[rob1976]

Was considering getting one for my 6 foot 125 gallon. It would the last fish I add…it would be the only tang in the tank.

Question is…is this tank big enough? And are they really that nasty?

If you get a small one it will be happy for a couple of years in that tank but you will eventually need to rehome it. They are usually ok until they hit around 6" or so and even then it may never display bad behavior. Really any tang can snap at any time. But being it's the only one in the tank you should be fine until it needs to be rehomed. Just have a plan.
