Default Fool Me Twice LFS: Clown Tang?

Dumb, Dumb, Dumb!!! I have only been keeping a reef tank for 6 months now but I am not new to fishkeeping. You think I would of learned a long time ago not to listen to the guys at the LFS. I have wanted a tang for a while now. My 75g is now up and running so I now have the space. I was at the LFS picking up other stuff and decied to check out the fish. I saw a nice healthy ick-free chubby Clown Tang and got the LFS employee over to help me. 75g tank isn't hugh and I know some Tangs get BIG so I asked him How big the Clown Tang gets. He held up his hands. "About this big." 8 or 9 inches. So I bought it. It is doing fine and is only about 4 inches right now. I got it home and decide to do some more research on Clown Tangs and it looks like this thing is suppose to get 15" long!!! > Well there go my bioload out the window and I can't get anymore fish. The What About Tangs Link said 15" and PetSolutions said 15".
Is this a "Wild" mature size and if so How large sould I except this thing to get?
If not do you think I should be able to take it back? It is still health and all.
