i think most people know that poweder blues are one of the more delicate tangs and most people start out with the yellow tang it is less delicate and easier to care for.

Yes certain tangs are known to be very hard to keep, as they are prone to ich and other disease and most people dont know how to care for them or provide the correct home...

A yellow tang is extremely hardy and is probably the most easiest to keep of them all, not to mention this is the ONLY tang that is more forgiving in terms of a smaller tank, (no less then a 4 ft 55gallon)

what is the dif in a 55g and 75g since both of them are 4 ft long. i think that tangs dont care about hight. and the width is not much more than a 55g.

yea well from what i see tangs usually are at one level mostly front bottom and swim from one side to another the whole time so i dont think it would matter for them.

Not my Blonde Naso. He is all over the tank. Constantly up and down behind the rocks back and forth.

my yellow tang goes all over the tank too, but at night he only swims back and forth, i think it is because he loves the current (it is strongest in front) but im getting new PH in hte mail(shouild be here soon)
