| Blue hippo Tang Hi everyone!! I have a question about putting one of these fish in a 29 gallon OBC. My son is 5 and loves all the fish from finding nemo but some fish store clerks are telling me that this fish would get way to big for this size tank?? I did find one about 1.5 to 2 inchs in size and one of the lfs people are holding it for me till friday when I get paid.. Is this a bad fish to buy for this tank? Or will it be alright? Also just to let everyone know I cut back on the lights and did a 20% water change and also scubbed my life rock with a soft tooth brush to keep down the algae. Also I bought some emerald crabs, sand sifting snails, and some turbo snails so far every thing is looking really good(amazing how good these snails are) Well thanks for the help everyone  |

| Welcome to RB I'd advise against any tang in the 29gallon. They just get to big and it stresses em out... |

| Tang Thanks for the advise Krazy K, I will stay away from the tang and spend my money on something else for the tank. |
