Wow! Beautiful fish Jason! How long have you had it and how large is it now?
|
In my ignorance I bought it 2 1/2 years ago, about 3 weeks after the tank had finished it's cycle. Him and I have gone through a lot, like 2 tank leeks and of course me learning all I could about him. I got him from animal house (Pre Hidden Reef) and he was the about 2 inches. he is close to 4 inches now. and is in need of a bigger home. I hope I will soon be able to give him that home after I move.

Mine is an elongate or A. mata. I bought it as a blue-line tang (10") but it turned out its an Elongate tang (20"). It's about the fastest growing fish I've ever seen. Smaller than my damsels 3 months ago (1"). Now, it's over 5" and still growing. I feed my fish nori, mysis, enriched brine, frozen angelfish food, blood worms, OSI Marine flakes & Spirulina flakes, and freeze-dried plankton. They eat better than I do :lol: :lol: Need a much bigger tank soon. 200+g anyone???

i've had a few tangs in my time... and i LOVE them ALL!!
i voted for PowderBlue though... :mrgreen: she is awesome... here's her story... had wanted one forever... finally felt my tank was ready for one...(had a purple tang at the time already) she was in a tank with about 20 yellow tangs :eek: was looking a touch too thin for my liking, but she was alert and had a good appetite at the LFS so i took her home... intoduced her to the tank, she didnt flinch for a second, no dashing no darting no hiding... the purple didnt chase her at all. she had claimed her spot as QUEEN!! :lol: she put on weight in no time and has been lookin beautiful ever since. she did break her back once while getting caught in a fishtrap, which scared the crap outta me, as i saw her awkardly swim away with a really bad bent spine. but it corrected itself in a few hours! to my relief! |
I didn't see it on the list but it is just killing me to say it
Poon Tang.........................LOL :BIG: |
Phewww.

tang
I vote for the Sohal tang because with al of l my experiences with tangs, the Sohal is one of the most robust fish I've ever own. I got it 4 months ago and for the first month he was full of ick. I not did quaratine nor treat him for ick, he battle ick himself. As for temperment, mine is nice guy in comparsion to most others. I have five other fish in the tank and he doesn't bother any one of them.

I'm dreamin' about that "small Sohal" they have listed at J&L now... :neutral:
But these are still my 2 faves and they'll do just fine. :mrgreen: http://members.shaw.ca/AJ_77/mar05_tangs.jpg |
