Critter trap
I would think it would be easy to catch cleaner shrimp, every time I stick my hand in the tank to work my cleaner jumps on and cleans me.
I happen to be a pro tang person in the sense that i dont flip out when someone wants to put a couple of tangs in a smaller size tank (smaller than 75). But some people tend to make it obvious that they feel VERY VERY strongly about a tangs "rights". Tang arguments are getting old and most of them are widely based on emotion instead of fact. I feel that if someone wants to put three tangs in a 55 gallon tank they should be able to do so without getting harassed and badgered, while getting concrete information that will help them rather than just put them down.
Concrete information yes, but justification for not trying to help a new comer not make his next post "why does my tang have white spots?" Thats when i get in trouble for pointing out the same old same old. Tangs are in general not as simple to keep IMO as they are easily stressed if not housed and fed properly. Certainly a 1" tang in a 55 is good for a few years, but if you are successful, it will grow pretty fast. It was always hard to give up the fish when it got big, so the tanks got larger and larger at my house. Beware. I am not sure there is a cure for this or any going back.
