Tang Help

[ponokareefer]

I have a 240 gallon tank in my office, but we are moving and I’m not able to have a large system in my new office location. I have a yellow tang in my current system that I’ve had for 6 years that I don’t want to part with. What is the smallest recommended system for a yellow tang? It would likely be the tang, a copperband butterflyfish and a pair of clowns only in the new system.

It would be fine in a 90, but I'm not sure if it'll tolerate the copperband in a 90.

Thanks for your help. I had originally been looking at a 75, but wasn't sure I wanted it in that something that small.

I see online for standard tank sizes that there is a 6 foot long 100 gallon. That would be ideal, but have seen one. I'll have to see if I can't find one as a custom tank is always a lot more.

If you have room for a 6' tank you should check out a standard 125.

The width is the issue in the location that I have available.

custom? there are some great shops here in alberta. We ( Aquarium Illusions) can build you anything you would want

A 90g or 120g since you don’t have 6ft of length, I would want as many gallons as you can get in the space available

I think a 120 is perfect for a reef the may need to be taken down. Good for most fish.Shallow 120 (90) not narrow 90 also good.
