yellow tsang

Is there any problem keeping a yellow tsng in a 75 gallon?

Of course the wife and kids want thaty nice yellow fish but I am told 4 foot across is not enough and there food habits are not easy either?

It's going to be the minimal tank requirement range, but I'd say you can do it as long as there is enough room for it to swim around comfortably, it has a proper diet, and it is not overcrowded by too many other tankmates or incompatible tank mates. That's my thoughts anyway.

if you buy a smaller one it shouldn't be a problem. Just make sure there is open swimming room.
