tangs

[briscott]

I looking for someone that has or had an achillies tang in a 75 gallon tank before. Looking for some info or tips.

not advised... the achilles tang is pretty sensitive, and quite aggressive once established... Most acanthurus species tangs should be kept in a tank larger than 150 gallons.

Here's a list of tangs and what RC thinks is the minimum recommended tank sizes for each. According to RC, the Achilles should be in at least 100g.
