I now have 6 tangs in my 225 gal tank.

1 Gem tang
1 D. Sailfin tang
1 Purple tang
1 Achilles tang
1 Blonde Naso tang
1 Tomini tang

All but 1 in the photo below. I call this MY tang gang.

This photo is several months old. They have grown a good bit since this photo.

SO, in my "Reef" I have 2, a Yellow and Hippo

in my FO I have 3, Scopas, Hippo, and Powder Brown

Eventually, when they outgrow the 55g, the 2 in the reef will move into the 180.

Only have the one tomini in my 4ft/1.5/1.5 tank. Had him for about a year now, he still seems comfortable, so hoping i can keep him until i can upgrade the tank.

I only have 2 a clown tang and a sailfin. I have them in a 150 gallon atm but when they outgrow the tank they're going in a greenhouse with at least a 1000 gallon pool or fiberglass tank. Plans for that are on hold atm because I'm away from home for awhile.

1. How many tangs (surgeonfish) do you have in your reef tank now?

2. What tangs do you have and if you're comfortable with it tell us what size tank you have?

1. Currently only 2. I had the bad batch of TM pro salt and lost too many fish and corals, including 3 tangs. Sohal, achilles and yellow... At least my Gem and Convict made it.

2 I have a Waterbox 180.5 so the main display volume is 130 gallons. (Not something I suggest for anyone who is not well advanced in the hobby.)
