odd yellow tang?
I have a yellow tang and every now and then, now more than usual he tends to lay on his side in the sand for a bit. Then he pops up and swims around like nothing happened. Is this normal or is he all messed up?

I dont think that is normal at all. Have you tested your water lately?

That yellow is exibiting behavior that of a blue hippo tang. Blue hippo tangs have a tendency to lay on their side and play dead. Monitor the yellow tang carefully. See if any of the other fish is being agressive towards it. Watch for signs of desease and a water change would help as well.

might be an oxgyen issue maybe? Is the tank covered? How's the airflow?

No chance for cyanide, all yellow tangs come from Hawaii - where cyanide isn't used.
