The Clown Tang is one of my favorite fish off al time. While there are rare success stories the survival rates of this fish are dismal. It's one of the few Tangs I can thing of where you can do everything right, get a great specimen, give him tons of room, plenty to graze on, quarantine, and they still frequently die. The thing that seperates them from other difficult tangs like the Gold Rimmed (Acanthurus nigricans) is the fact that if they do live you might wish that it hadn't because they get so mean as they grow and get comfortable.
