I know most tangs need more swimming area than what a 90 gallon provides.
I heard there is a tang that will do well in a 90 but cannot remember for sure what it was. Seems to me it may have been a scopas. Is this correct or which one is it.
My 90 is a reef with multiple sps and lps with 150lbs MI rock.
Thanks, brian

Not permanently. You could, of course, keep a very, very small one in that size tank for a little bit. But when it grows up, the smallest recommended size for any Tang is a 75. And that seems to be pushing it.

Right.
I have a baby (1") yellow tang in my 40 gallon.
Hes having a blast right now swmiing like crazy, snatching foor from the LTA and chasing the Damsel.
In a year, My tank will be upgraded (income permitting) to over 125Gallons. (Theres a sweet 180gallon for $800 at my LFS)

It ends in .Net and the name:
"Steven Spielberg movie about a 'Big fish' staring Roy Scheider"
You have to misspell it with a "Z" though.
LMAO...
Can I buy a vowel?
