bangaii breeding

[sandman12]

I'm considering breeding bangaii's and was wondering if I should keep the pair in my 135g reef or in there own tank(20g?). I already have a big bangaii in the 135 reef and would like to keep the pair in the 135 if it wouldn't be too hard to catch the young.

Thanks

james-
if your planning on breeding them, then yes, keep them in a smaller tank.
Your main display tank will most likely prohibit you from easily removing the brooding male, or the hiding young once they are released. Additionaly, if you can't capture th efry- which you won't- then you'll have issues bringing food densities to the young.
Now if your planning on an occasion fry or two, then sure leave them in your main tank

Would a 20g long be enough for a breeding pair and a 10g for the young?

Thanks

should be fine, you could actually keep them in the display and you just need to caught dad before he opens his big mouth,and put himin the 20. When the kids are out put him back.
