(cringe) ... to start, and I'm this isnt something you love hearing, but there's no such thing as a mini regal tang. while unfortunately popular, that fish is way to big for a ~50 gallon tank, regardless of it's current size (they grow fast and can attain 14" with ease), so I'd start considering finding it another home. it's metabolism is way too high to be healthy for or in that tank.
do you have a skimmer or any filtration system?
