really?At least a 250g
Yes. They grow to 16" in the wild. Liveaquaria has them listed as a 250g minimum so even that is probably small.really?
so they fight with other fish? what tang looks like this one and isnt aggresive?I have one word: Bellicose
I do love them though.
Yes they are aggressive. Attila would be a good name for one.so they fight with other fish? what tang looks like this one and isnt aggresive?
I'd say 300 gallons, minimum. 500 would be more acceptable. And it may well eventually end up killing all the other fish in your aquarium- these fish can be very nasty. They are known to attack other surgeonfish and large triggers in the ocean. It is a beautiful fish, though. The clown tang is somewhat close in appearance, and though it is fairly high up on the acanthurid aggression pyramid, it is a bit more manageable in a community tank. For a clown you're looking at 180 gallons at least- 250 would be a better fit.My dream fish is a baby sohal tang and I want to build a tank in the distant future to fit this fish what do you all suggest for the size?
