yeah this is my first post.
i read the sticky. and i know the arguments and i am just looking for suggestions from people with experience keeping zebrasoma tangs. i happen to like them.
i have two currently. a yellow and a brown. they are in a 40 gallon tank 4ft long. i happen to believe gallons mean squat compared to length...i do think width is important too but currently i think12 inches is plenty. they are both juvvys and about 2-3 inches. they get allong great and i have had no aggression issues...added together. i want at least 2 more...purple and a sailfin.
my upgrade tank...ready in about 3-4 months will be 6'x2'x18"
can't really remember the gallonage i figured but whatever 130ish i think. is this absolutely out of the question or what?
i also would plan to swap out the sailfin as needed as i know they can get quite large, but the others should be fine. just don't know about the aggression issue...
that is why i would prefer hearing from those of you who have actually kept multiple zebrasoma tangs and please feel free to tell me about yourexperiences. if you haven't done this then save it, have read all the same stuff you have
thank you. ps don't mean to be rude but i have heard it from other forums and usually its just a bunch of people telling me like they know...and their only experience is the same crap i have read. again thank you and sorry its so long.
