Getting back to your question : I've found blue tangs aren't cheap !
I haven't priced one lately but my guess is $40 - $90 depending on size .

They had some really small babies but wasn't comfortable taking one that small as all my fish are quite a bit bigger and was concerned a tiny one would get picked on or just hide in the rocks and not eat.

I bought a tiny tiny one from ocean for $42 or something. It used to school with chromis but was eaten by my maxi mini :(

They are so cute when that small but my tank seemed to big to raise one. Sucks about the nem....:sad:



That's awesome!!

Ok, so maybe the price was not sooooo bad. I like to feed right after adding fish and she had quite the appetite :lol:. She's also pretty fat already and no issues with the other fish...Well my sailfin is raising her fins at her but no chasing.

And she's gorgeous when she does it too! Oceans had some little sailfins as well, even a yellow one. Mine eats from my hand.

No that wasn't me. No one in the store when I was there, I think someone came in as I was paying tho, didn't see who.
