Juvenile Blue Tang???I could definately be wrong this is just a guess.

[organicreefer]

hes 4-5 inches so i wouldnt call him a juvenile.i got him over at the aquarium in concord a few weeks ago .when i asked what kind of tang it was in the tank the girl who helped me(i think she was new)said it was a blonde naso.looking back on it i think there was a blonde naso in the tank (apperently she read what was written on the glass and since the tang was yellow she thought blondeand.......)anyway i didnt know what a naso looked like so i went along with it but im sure my fish isnt even a naso.looks like a powder blue reversed i cant find anything that looks like it

[organicreefer]

that was a good guess bamm bamm i looked it up and its a possibility would he have changed colors by say 4 inches or so .maybe hes in transition .

Which store in concord did you get it at?? I work out by the airport and frequent all the stores regularly..Theres 3 good stores..Concord aquarium(the one on clayton road), super pet wherehouse..Lots of reef stuff and marine fish, behind Kragen on contra costa next to the Wendy's and Of course the head price gouggers of the Area the Aquarium.. I try to stay away from there there livestock sucks!!plys there double the price of everyone else.. Sounds liek if it was a young girl you were probably at the Concord aquarium talking to the owners daughter..I actually even though that place is ghetto kind of like it..Superpet wherehouse is fairly decnet with lots and lots of stuff..


I got some toadstool frags for ya..Dan


What size setups do you have>?

[organicreefer]

dan,
i got him at the aquarium(head price gougers ).i never buy anything but livestock from there(sometimes they have stuff the other stores dont).i go into superpet regularlyand will be going there to pick up my new aga 120 twinflo on wed. .superpet is by far the cheapest place around from what ive seen and is definitely the place to pick up hardware.the concord aquarium is ok but i dont go there too much.
right now i have a 110 gallon tank with 150 lbs of figi in it that will be fish only (trigger puffer eel)and my 93 gallon 30"x30" square reef setup 100lbs live rock dsb unknown tang, cleaner wrass, mandarin, torch ,mushrooms, ricordia ,plate, mushroom plate, pipe organ, rose leather ,anthelia polyps
the 93 is about to go into the new 120(93 is an old tank that i dont trust )i finally got my moms digital camera and have taken some pics but now i need my brotheres help to load them so stay tuned.just so happens i dont have a toadstool

weel i went back to The Aquarium today to complain about being way over charged for this fish(it was identified as a mimic tang in the reefs section thanks to myreef and reefkid with pics help from ninong of course)and the manager made it right .i got the diff. in store credit.alls well that ends well
