Convict Tang never sleeps

[Patrick Cox]

I have a new convict tang and this fish never stops swimming. When I get up in the morning it’s swimming while the rest of the tank is sleeping and then it is swimming all day and night. I guess this is normal behavior for this variety of tang?

thanks.

Yes indeed. My PBT does the same thing. I get tired out by watching him swim for 15 minutes.
