tang

Hi all! This Saturday, I got a small adult chocolate tang and a tomini tang from my LFS. Tomini has been fine through all of this. I put them in my quarantine tank for observation. They weren’t picking at each other at all, and had actually come from the same holding tank at the store. On...

Hey Guys, so I have a general question with Tangs, so I currently have a 120 gal tank, I put in a Purple Tang and a Blue Tang at the same time maybe about 2-3 weeks ago, I was wondering if it was too late to put in a Powder Blue tang into the mix, I’ve had tangs before like Mimic Tangs...

Hello, My tomini tang has had marks on him for over a week now. Had to go away for a trip and it looks much worse. Have not been able to identify what it has. He is eating but is hiding a lot. He obviously looks more white than normal, had holes in the head, and appears to have a rust like...

Hello my name is Mikey and I decided to give a build thread a go. I actually started this tank just a little over 1 year ago but since then I have made many upgrades and have been very fortunate. Over the past year I have started with nothing and have added over $10,000 worth of coral and fish...

Hi all! Happy Weekend! currently I have a Purple Tang and a Foxface. They get on completely fine but like brothers sometimes do want there own space. I was thinking about adding another yellow tang. would a third calm aggression or would it spike some more trouble? currently a 200 litre tank...

Hello, Located in Chicago. Looking to sell my yellow tang, clown trigger, and emperor angelfish. All are health and well fed! Noah

Picked him up yesterday, and today I notice he’s got this silver around his eyes, could this be HLLE, if so what should I do? To preface I do not and have never run carbon in this tank.

My tang is "surfing" one of my clams. Should I be worried or is he just playing? I have 3 clams and this is the only one the tang has an interest in. This is happening daily and the tang and the banghai seem to fight over the territory.

I recently purchased a 65 gallon Red Sea tank on Offerup. The owner was including all of his livestock along with the tank. One of the fish included was a fairly large blue tang (about 6-7 inches). I understand that he is likely too large for this tank but I had no choice but to take him. What...

Are there anything in these findings that would've killed my tang? He was breathing kinda fast starting yesterday or the day before...He died this morning. If you have suggestions I could go back and try to get a better picture of something. @vetteguy53081 Let me know if I should take...

What do I do? I've been dosing prazi pro. Done 3 doses already so I doubt it is flukes or worms. I haven't seen him scrape or anything. He's not swimming too much, he seems lethargic. The video is right after most of the food was gone. He ate some but not as much as normal. Ill try and do a...

I am open to any fish expert on this type of tang. I expect 1/2 is bristletooth type and other 1/2 like kole.

Hi all, I have a little 2-inch Tomini tang in QT right now, he has been there for about 2 weeks. We haven't done any medication yet because he wasn't eating at first and we didn't want to stress him further. He is eating just fine now, and has become more active (still a complete scaredy cat...
