Tang on it's last leg or fin..
Just looked in our tank first thing this morning to see our tang at the bottom almost solid white in color. Thought he was dead went to scoop him out but he started moving around. My question is remove him now or wait and see if he makes a comeback?

What kind of tang?
Is it laying down or swimming upright?
Does it seem to have any balance problem?
Are there any spots or lesions on it?
Does it appear any other fish are picking on it?
Will it eat anything?
Has anything changed since you posted this morning?

It died. Gerwin said I more than likely didn't get to it quick enough to start treatment. I thinki will buy a uv stabilizer.
