powder blue tangs are one of the most beautiful looking tangs in my opinion. Looks like some of your coraline on the back wall died. When its white its dead. How big of water changes do you do? whats your calcium/dk at?
great tank. props for not over crowding with live rock and fish. but i think a black background would look amazing! cause when i saw the tank, my eyes went to the cords, not to the rock/fish. just a suggestion. GREAT TANK!
also agreeing with 1badlad1979, that powder blue tang looks like its dying to ge out its slamming against the wall, it needs room!! i think you much wanna reconsider the fish selectrion he needs a big tank, amazing fish tho
You are probably doing the right thing by keeping only a few fish. The powder blue needs room and can get a little pissed in a 55 gallon tank. Good luck with your tank.
o i didnt c the clown, and im not tryin 2 force u 2 put more fish in i just thaught it looked low populated but now that u say u have 2 clowns in it that changes it and it really is a nice tank
thanks, if i added anything it would be one small goby or blenny. i don;t want to get close to crowded and the tank has been running with the current population (TANG, 3 chromis, 2 clowns, 2 shrimp, ? hermit crabs, ? snails) for almost 2 yrs - very stable water with routine water changes.

tank looks great. I would definitely add more flow for the coral...the fish also love the extra flow to swim in.
