    Hey Guys, Just wanting your opinon on something....

    I have a red sea max 130D (Volume 130L). I've had the tank just over 6 months now and currentely have 2 Occelaris clowns, 2 yellow tailed blue damsels and was wondering what my chances are of fitting a small yellow tang in it. I have a lot of vegetation in my tank etc. and my water tests are all coming out great. So what ya' think? would i be wasting my money?:confused:

    That tank is a bit small for a tang. They normally like lots of swimming room and wouldnt really get it in that sized tank.

    You wouldn't be able to keep it in a tank that small for long enough to make it worth it. Maybe a month at the most for a real small one. You also might have to rip apart all of your aquascaping just to bag him to return to the LFS.
