I'm gonna probably order a yellow tang from liveaquaria tomorrow. Options for size are small, small/medium, and large 5"". I currently only have a pair of clowns in the tank and I don't want them to get bullied but I also don't want the tang to be bullied. Any suggestions?

What size tank? Regardless, however, I prefer to buy smaller (younger) fish in the hopes that they will be with me longer.

I like to get smaller ones as well. Especially Wrasses I like watching the color transformations.

Thanks guys. It's going in a 90gal. I know it's pushing it but in my opinion it's between the yellow and a kole and the wife seems to like the yellow more.

You're in SoCal, there's an LFS around every corner and I'm sure all of them will have yellow tangs in stock. If it were me , I'd rather pick out a specimen in person to get exactly what I want. Like size, health, eating good, plus less stress with shorter transport.

Yellow small for me, depends on what tank size.

This is a plus but make sure the LFS has the same guarantee that LA does

You know that's a good idea. I was initially thinking divers den because they had a kole but think I'm gonna go with a yellow now. Thanks for making my brain work.
