Timely video for me! I will be receiving my first Tangs next week from Elliot Lim at Marine Collectors (He is local so I will pick them up). One Orange Shoulder Tang (Acanthurus Olivaceus), and one Chocolate Tang (Acanthurus Pyroferus). This video helped me to understand the Acan 3rds basic physiology and look forward to the future videos in the series that talks about a specific one. The deeper knowledge TSA provides on these animals really helps put all the pieces of the puzzle together for successful fish husbandry. Thank you Taras!
Biggest change in my tangs behavior and overall health has been after I started feeding nori daily after watching a wwc coral video with Victor showing how he feeds it. Best thing I've done for my tangs ever!
I have a new tang that eats frozen no problem, but haven't shown any interest in eating nori from the clip (even after the nori is garlic soaked). Any tricks to get them to eat nori from the clip?
Just to be clear, you are reducing the tang aggression in the tank with ensuring they have an abundance of nutritional food and high flow? I have a 400g, 96Lx24Wx36H and I can't seem to get multiple tangs to cohabitate with each other. I've had to remove everything except for my huge blonde naso and a Desjardini.

I currently have a Sailfin Tang. One of my favorite.
Huge fan of Sailfins! They really bring some amazing color and movement into a reef!

Awesome video! Can you make a similar video discussing the family blenniidae, such as the lawnmower blenny and fang blennies?
We will put it on our list for sure!

Love it. Have you used mollies to clean your coals?
We do aquaculture mollies here on site, and they are a great picker of algae!

Also, one of my new tangs paces up and down the glass at one end of the tank of a 200 gallon tank. Any tricks to get them to stop?

I remember when yellow Tangs were $20 all day long. 😢
Those were the days!
