Absolutely beautiful Tangs! What size are they?
You may want to add quite a bit of more LR for them to eat off and places for them to hide in.

Yours is likely younger, and the yellow will fade as it gets older. The yellow tail and pronounced yellow stripes are traits of juvenile sailfins.
Nice fish, btw.

I really don't want to be that guy, but do you plan i getting a bigger tank? Naso's get huge and need ample swimming room. As for the porcupine, he gets bigger and will wreck havoc on your bioload. I'm not part of the tang police, just want to make sure you aware of what you have there so far. I see no LR, what are doing as far nutrient export? Nice fish nonetheless. Regards, Tim

weeeeeellll ya ill probably get a couple big tanks in the far future but im not planning on anything soon. im getting about 40 more pounds of LR i have about 60 maybe 70 in there right now and i also have macro algae that they munch on and sea veggies.
tangs do get big but after a loong o time i dont think he is gonna grow too big in my tank now and for the amount of time i plan on having him in that tank
