Got myself a yellow eyed tang yesterday, the india version. It was fine yesterday swimming length of the tank in and out of the rock. I havnt yet seen it eat except for picking at glass algae and rock. Today it has isolated itself at one end of the tank and just swims back a d forth the width of the tank. I know it may take a few days to settle in but how many should I give it until I think about doing something?

Every fish is different and it takes time to acclimate. You just got it yesterday
