Sailfin Tang Question

[jsteiert]

Are sailfin tangs shy? is it uncommon for one to hide all the time?
If it is unusual what would cause this behavior?

Is there any other tangs........ aggresive fish......... What size tank.

 

[jsteiert]

I have 2 clowns, 1 snow flake eel, 30 gal, starting up a 125 gal to move the sailfin into.

Probably stressed from the overstocked tank.

2 clowns and 1 SFE is overstocked for a 30 gal tank????

 

[aw2]

With the addition of an open water, very active fish, such as a Sailfin Tang...yes, that's overstocked.
