Tang Police?

[surgeon_fan]

I have 13 tangs in my aquarium is that bad?

 

[surgeon_fan]

oops, my bad, i mean 14

not if you have the room for them it isnt bad, as a 600 gal tank im sure they are very happy(well as happy as anything thing can be in a tank).tangs are schooling fish so they like having company. dont worry you have no fears with the tang police ,unless they are living on brine shrimp lol..just out of curiousity what types of tangs do you have i have 5 larger tangs in my 300 plus a foxface(which are related)

3 yellow, 1 scopas, 1 pacific sailfin, 1 powder blue, 1 ocean surgeon, 2 orange shoulder, 1 lieutenant, 1 pacific blue, 1 yellow eye, and 2 naso. What tangs do y'all have?

i'm planning on 4 large angels and 6 tangs in a 600 gallon aquarium, any suggestions?

angels:
emperator
french
queen
annularis

tangs:
yellow
red sea sailfin
purple
blue
sohal
vlamgii

they will all be around 3-5"

sohal and vlamingi are two of my favorites! if you can find one the mustard tang (acanthurus guttatus) is a beautiful and not to pricy tang. the red sea sailfins are beautiful, i have a nine inch pacific sailfin and i love him to death but the red sea are more stunning. the pacific blues are great if you can get a healty specimen, they are very shy and i recommend taking them home sooner rather than later from a dealers tank, they are notorious for wasting away, they don't compete well for food in overstocked store conditions.

Post some pics. Almost seems like a fake thread with the title and the fact you have 7 posts, only 3 outside this thread...

What deminsions are the tank anyways? I used to see a LFS with a 600g which was 8ft long, 4ft tall, and 30 inches wide.

 

[surgeon_fan]

mine is 8 feet long, 4 feet deep, 30" tall. what is LFS? how do i post pics?

 

[surgeon_fan]

bad photo, still working on the digital photo thing

 

[surgeon_fan]

try that again

LFS means local fish store... cool tank, same as the one i saw but laying down. Got any close ups of the tangs?

 

[surgeon_fan]

i will get some uploaded after class, gotta run for now, your tank is quite a beauty as well, my father has a 125 built into the wall, we tiled the front with marble tiles set in a diamond pattern, looked very sharp.

Anyway, How do we know its his tank? He said he'd upload some pics after class? Awfully large tank for a student If its really his...good for him, looks fine to me

 

[surgeon_fan]

what do you think of my stocking list?

 

[surgeon_fan]

why would someone waste the time trying to decieve about, of all things, an aquarium?
