I changed a small amount of water in my 92 gallon tank, and my sailfin tang
went into hiding and turned unusually dark colored. It might have been the
new tap water, containing chlorine,.or perhaps the pH of the new water, or
maybe the cup of salt I added to the tank, but he seems okay now, after
about an hour, and besides, the water change was nothing that he hasn't been
trough in the past, several times. Mike.
