Picture? Tank size? Water parameters? Any other tank mates?
 
Can you tell us a bit more about the tang? Any other symptoms? Heavy breathing? Spots? How long have you had the fish?

I'd FW dip him again and then treat asap with General Cure or Prazipro + Metro to completely deworm and rid him of flukes. Just be mindful that the dip will only relieve mostly skin flukes. The flukes, if they are there on the gills, need the GC or Prazi to help the fish breath.
