Would a 50 gallon tank be a good size to put a regal tang in, i also have 2 percula. Thanks you guys are a big help and i trust you. Thanks!!!

It's a bit small IMO They get pretty big and require a lot of swimming space. They're very prone to ich as they stress out very easily...in a smaller tank that wouldn't bode well for them.
