I don't understand why everyone is a tang police. Who decides this size anyway? You say 200g for a tang, some say 75g, some say 120g....everyone has a different idea. If I listen others in this forum and get a 100g tank, I would be still flamed by you. Why do you think a YT damsel doesn't need a big tank? Just because they are small? If so, have you ever seen how they live in ocean?

My point is non of these fish belong to an aquarium. I see no difference between a 3" damsel that can BELONG to my aquarium and a 3" tang that can't.

The reason that you are not a saltwater hobbiest or a fishlover is because in the wild these fish swim miles a day 1 mile is 5280 feet 1 40 gallon breeder 3 feet see the difference. I would not put a tang in 75,125 and for some not even 200 gallons. I am seriously considering taking the tangs off the stock list for my future 1520 gallon tank because no matter how gorgeus they are they belong in the wild!!!!!!! I remember snorkeling in Hawaii and coming across a group of 30 yellow tangs as soon as I the group I was snorkeling with got within 10 feet off them, off they sped at least 60 feet away from us. Does your blue tang have enough room to speed away when come into the room NO. Please for the health of the fish give it to a responsible hobbiest people like you give a bad name to the aquarium hobby
