What is the best temperature for tangs?

Soon, the convict tang that I bought will be delivered to my house by the seller. However, there is a little problem: I'm confused about the proper water temperature and parameters for the fish. So, what is the best water temperature and parameters for tangs?

Acanthurus triostegus, or Convict Tang, is found in the tropical Indo-Pacific region. Typically, convict tangs are found in tidal pools, while large tangs are found at around 90 meters or 300 feet deep. Most adult convict tangs will gather in large groups to forage for food. It's actually for spawning female and male convict tang fish that gather in groups.
