    I think your tank is okay for the tang. It is a bit small, but certainly not the worst scenario I've seen. Sometimes tangs can get destructive in small tanks, so just keep an eye out, but I think you'll be okay. I'd agree on removing the dottyback though they are aggressive like damsels and need a tank to themselves almost.

    if it was one of the only fish it would probably be fine, but in this case there are several other fish making the tank overstocked. and i agree with 2 in 10 the tank is borderline. it can be done but it all depends on stocking and length and such factors as this
