Some tangs can not be put together My friend who has several salt water aquariums (and has had for over 15 years) said not all tangs can be put in a tank together. Also you should never have two of the same kind in the same tank. (as in, two yellow tangs, to put two blue tangs, or put two brown tangs together) Some tangs are more aggessive than others also.So you need to be careful of which ones are put together.

A flame tang is one of the more aggressive. When she sets up a new salt water tank, she does is slowly, adds live rock only so much at a time.As for the first fish she puts in and only has them until the tank cycles: the common clown.

I would say 2 tangs for a tank that size. Tangs cost $25-$40 online. In a tank that size you could probably get away with say 2 tang and 8 damsels or similar.

Yellow tangs require at least a 45-55 gallon tank. You wouldn't want more than 2 tang though, because they can fight! That said, you can cycle a tank without any fish at all.In this case, you add ammonium chloride to simulate fish waste and an initial source of nitrifying bacteria.

It is best to get a bacteria culture from an established saltwater tank. This can be in the form of some substrate, old filter media, or some macroalgae. Crabs and mollusks can also be used.

However, since these organisms don't produce much waste, it will take longer to cycle the tank. Yellow tangs sell for about $25 - $40.As I said before, they are aggressive towards their own species, so if you do use more than one tang, you should introduce them into the tank simultaneously. Good luck!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
