what size does a Harlequin Tusk really require? I found random answers while trying to research.

There are a lot of variables that go into tank size such as aquascape, other fish, etc...
I would say a 120 gallon 4'x2'. What size tank do you have?

I have a 75, I am inquiring for my sister who can't decide on a tank size yet as for now she is thinking a 75 or 90 so who knows.
Thanks for your reply.

I'd suggest around a 125 long (6 ft. long) or a standard 180. I've seen these guys easily reaching 9-10 inches in length. Also, they're pretty active swimmers. Another thing to consider is that although they are generally peaceful, they will eat any fish small enough to fit in their mouth. Mine ate my twin spot blenny which was about an inch and a half....
