tank size

[atlantic]

what is a recommended tank size for a sohal tang?

Minimum size I believe is 180, but the bigger the better. Trust me I had this guy(4" long) in my 90 gallon when I wasn't aware that it needs such a big tank. It is a very active fish, VERY agressive, and he killd my longnose Butterfly one day.

good luck trying to find one of these, i have only seen one in the past year at my 5 lfs i go to. the only one was very unhealthy and was like, 150 dollars

The local fish store in my city gets them in regularly. I have been going there for about a year now and their is always a sohal or 2 swimming around in the tanks. They look very healthy. They cost about $70 Canadian.

very aggressive fish. the bigger the tank, the better.
