So i just racked to secondary after having my wort in my primary for 10 days and its a modified belgian and it smelled like hops but when i tasted it (i've never tasted from primary to secondary before) it was sort of tangy, didn't smell like it was skunked and didn't quite taste like it either, other than then that tang.

If anyone has had any similar stories let me know how they turned out, i'm a little worried.

Its only been 10 days. A lot of my beers change over the course of 10 weeks, especially Belgians and especially higher gravity beers. I don't usually transfer to secondary, usually just leave it in the primary for ~4 weeks, then keg, but if I do secondary, its definitely after 3 weeks or so, not 10 days. Your beer is still really YOUNG.
