info on coral beauty

[conduit7]

Have a jbj 28 gal with mated pair of black & white percula clown. Looking to add only one more fish. Reef set up. Will 28 gal be large enough for coral beauty? Value your opinions. Thanks

The coral beauty is a very active fish and a 28 gallon tank would be too small imo.

the sites I read, seem to say min 40-50 gallon, but then again, Ive seen varied things on min tank requirements depending on the site.
That said we have one in our 44
what I cant find on some sites is the "swim room" like Tangs require, at least in some discussions, the Tank GALLONS isnt the only Factor for fish like Tangs they need horizontal distance to freely swim in, from what I think I understood anyway.

In reality, who are we humans to decide what a fish OUT of its normal enviroment should live in, bet if we ask the fish it will say PUT ME BACK LOL

There really nice and one of the lesser of the nippers but watch out if you have SPS they might nip at your polyps just FYI but I do think that it is to big for your smaller size tank.
