yep im setting up a 40 gallon breeder as my first saltwater aquarium my dad has a 300 gallon also and he has a naso, kole, red sea sailfin, yellow, purple, and a bule morph tang.

My question is what is a small tang that is affordable and able to be in a 40 gallon breeder which is 36x18x16.

Welcome to TRT

I'm afraid that no tang will do well long term in a 40g tank

for what would be good

[dobejazz]

Clowns, Blennies, Gobys are all good choices

Scopus still get quite large I feel bad for mine in my 95 - If anything I'd look at the Bristle tooth tangs for a 40g
