tang haven (up to 6 now, one more to go)

Post by ShagMan »

In the pic below, here's what in the picture:

GSM clown
runt/small yellow tang... two years with us so far.
purple tang and sailfin tang, swimming like old pals
green chromis, these are wonderful in a group
hippo tang, it was the large one B&B has had for a few weeks
two large yellow tangs from Riches, got 'em for under $50/pair.


I think the next tang (and last probably) we're gonna add is going to be one tang from the Acanthurus genus... atlantic blue, power brown/blue, achilles (too rare/delicate?)... what do you guys think? Rich has a beautiful Chevron, that he wanted $90 for, but he was still a juve, with orange coloring, and wouldn't get enough peace in my tank, I think.

Opinions!

I would try an Achilles, just for for its striking pattern and coloration. Just my opinion.

You have plenty of room for couple of more imo. That is a long tank and plenty of room to wander. I like what xster said that is one pretty tang. SWF.com does not have one right now but usually they sell there for around $49. I bet reefermadness can get you one here tomorrow for a simular price and much nicer. They are a little higher but their fish are a little bigger and nicer.
