Check out my new yellow belly regal tang, but this thing is tiny. For some reason he keeps trying to school with my clowns and they can't stand him, they keep leading him out to the chromis and ditching him but he comes back. Pic was taken with my iPhone after lights out. He has got to be the smallest tang I have ever seen, probably an inch long. I hope he survives because he was not cheap for what size he is.

Don't worry, they grow out of that size FAST. Hehehe. Mine started about an inch and in a little over a year is 3-4 inches. Biggest pig in my tank.

Did yours try to school with your clowns, mine will not stop trying even though they bully him and try to chase him away. I'm worried he is gonna end up in one of their anemones (my rbta split and they use both), he gets very close.

Must be dory and thinks one of the clowns is marlin.

My clowns would have killed him if he tried to school with them. I had to move them out of the display cause they attack and chase everything.
