Naso tang

[mohd]

How many 10 cm Naso tang can be kept in 48 inches tank? People told me the different detail some saying that it's agressive to the same spicie but some say that fine....!

I would say 1, but only for a short time because they get way to big and need a 6 ft tank.

kinda depends.
is it permanent? IF so only one.
If temporary a few if they are all added at the same exact time. And that is only a maybe.
They dont seem to get along well.

I just only can keep it in my 48 inches tank for 1 week or 10 days. then just get back to my friend.

People here in my country suggested me to keep them 1 or 2 if not just keep it as a big group around 10 or more. I will keep it only 7-10 days before return to my friend.

Thats too boad Ron.

As for the Naso i would say anywhere from 5-6 for a short period of time, but you need to have plenty of hiding spaces and lots of room for them to swim. If this is a permanet keep than just one and i think a 48" long tank is going to be a tad too small for the naso. They really do better in larger/longer tanks. Because they are mainly swimmers.

Sorry.
