I want one, let start a group buy:bagfish:

 

[marrone]

I had one for quite sometime, got it at a Petland when someone get a delivery from Flying Fish Express that was delivered 2 days late so Flying Fish Express told him to keep it free of charge. They're not as rare as some other fish, you can usually get one if you want, but they do carry a high price tag and basically aren't as nice as some of the other tangs, which go for a lot less.

They're pretty hardy, similar to Purple tangs, though they're not as aggressive as Purple or Yellow tangs. They do get some what large and usually don't look as nice when they're large.

As far as food they'll eat the same foods as other tangs will, so give then a lot of greens and it will do very well.

Thanks I figured it would eat what my other tangs eat, but just wanted to confirm this..
I've never seen one this small 3"... I'm loving this thing..

 

[marrone]

The smaller ones are usually more preferable, as they lose some of the black around the inside top of the body, as they get larger.

Since they're not collected as much as the other tangs size wise it's usually hit or miss. You can get a small one, around 2", or a large one around, 6"-8".

 

[Bob 1000]

I've only seen large one's in the past..

Hey Tobin maybe it's really yellow but was collected from an area that had an oil spill.:joke: Give it a bath......:tub: lol

 

[Bob 1000]

I tried to wipe it off and it died of suffocation I guess maybe I had it out of the water for to long..:funnypost
