Hi timmy,Well be thakful that your didnt get burned at the stake buy the tang police, dont feel bad, it happens to alot of newbies. Try to take the tang back to the store hippos need about 75-100 gal to try to keep away from any type of tang in a 10 gal. Outside tampa is a store called" fish and other ishy stuff", they have a good rep on RC, good luck.

how bizarre

 

I am sending carrot-nunchaku PETA commandos to check ESPI's place for any 'bonsai kittens' as we speak.

 

 

On topic - no way, him getting ick over and over means he's stressed

a 10 gallon? thats too small! blue tangs can grow up to a foot! and would probably need a 70 gallon tank to house them. Though they look small and cute in the lfs they can grow very big. It is not how big they are that matters, it is how big they can grow to. A 10 gallon would be torture.
