    Well this might sound stupid but is a yellow tang hard to take care of? The only reason I say this is because I completely forgot that they're prone to ick and black ick plus lateral line erosion so that kind of scared me when i was doing research on it, and if I ever did end up getting one I wouldnt want that to happen to it. Any way to prevent that from happening? (excluding buying it sick, I obviously know that I dont want a sick tang.)

    Feed it NLS. Yellow tang is pretty hardy if you ask me.

    It's 4ft long, so... Make sure the fish as room to swim in a Straight line without stopping.
