[Ronny#66]

I have not been in the salt water hobby long and i have come to one conclusion. Most in the hobby have more money than sense. No end to what we will spend on a $ 6.00 Schromis to keep him happy and well. So I'm going to local bank morgage my house get that 200 gal set up at the LFS notice I didn't spell previous word!! And I'm going to have my pair of yelow tangs.:rollface: :rollface: :rollface:

Budget wisely and you can do a 200gal for about $2500. You'll need to buy used stuff, and DIY as much as possible. If you go New and Shiney... budget about $4000.

May be a little low unless its more of a FOWLR and no fancy lighting, but close.

Thanks for proving me right. :)

Just make sure your tank is ATLEAST 4ft in one direction...6ft to 8ft would be better....200g should be good. Did you think about whether or not you want corals or are you just going to be a fish junkie?

BTW...(That means By The Way :)) It's generally a good idea to put tangs in last..they can be aggressive and territorial. If they go in first, anything else you get may get attacked..and be sure to add the 2 together at the same time.

Welcome to hobby...in a few months you'll wish you'd picked up a drug habit instead since they tend to be cheaper. :)

Just wondering why you hate your yellow tang. We have the same size tank and mine is gettting quite agressive. Is this why you hate yours?

It was nice for a change once in a while, but I really preferred the original orange stuff.
