Tang Tally: How many Tangs can I keep in my tank?
Usually when we are thinking about Tangs and looking out for the Tang Police, the discussion is about the smallest tank where you should reasonably keep a Tang. However, today let’s move past that conversation and talk about how many Tangs can be successfully kept in a tank. Of course, the size and type of Tang will impact the answer as will the size of the aquarium. Please share your rationales, experiences, and other thoughts about how many Tangs should go in a tank.
Pro Tip: Understanding the size and compatibility of the different species of Tangs is an important part of selecting tankmates. Additionally, know that Tangs often set up territories within the aquarium.
