hi new one. i thought the same thing. i have a 50 gallon fresh and went to go buy a custom nano( 5 gallon) for $250.00 so i too could know what im doing first, bad idea im about 3 months in and want to now convert my 50 g to salt. i already need more room and with the smaller tank your...

tang is tooooo big for your tank no matter how small he is. his body design is for fast swimming in open waters. a nano is like putting him in a zip lock. i also understand they are easily stressed in small and that weekens their immune system witch in turn eventually leeds to death!!!!
