Hi

I have a Blue Tang that sufaces after eating and takes a mouthful for air then drives again relseasing the air bubbles on the way back down just like a diver would. All my levels a good and my other yellow and sailfin tangs are not doing it.

Is this normal behavior or is there a problem? Thanks for your help on the matter. any more info please ask. thanx.gif

My blue tang does that every now and then. Seems like normal behavior. Nothing is wrong with the guy.
