Today I found a guy on crags list selling his tank. So I decided I would check it out. Maybe purchase some liverock or a fish. When I got there I saw that his tank was a 20 and had, 1clownfish,1firefish,1 dimond goby, 1 6line wass, and a yellow tang!! I was shocked to see this pore guy in such a small tank. he had a small spot with some scales missing. Prob due to stress. I told him I would take him for my tank. Long story short I now have a yellow tang in my 60gal tank(48"long) I know this is small still for a tang but it is way better then letting him stay any longer in that 20. What should I do with him? My lfs does not buy fish and I have already put post on my local reef club but nobody is interested. I do plan on upgrading to a 120g in the future so should I keep him till then?
 
Also does anybody have any good advice on feeding the tang? Right now I am feeding every day alternating frozen and flakes and I have an clip to put sea weed in.
