mystery tang
 

I have had this tang 6 years and never found out what he is.He looks more like the surgion family.I have never seen him in a book or on the internet.He is light blue but turns black when he/s eating or ****ed off.Has anybody had one that sounds like that.I will try and post a picture of him.He/s probally 14 to16 inches long.

Sounds like my Lavender tang i used to have but i pictures would really help

It/s a elongate tang.A fellow under reef posted a picture

Yup, love those Elongate tangs (A. mata) but they grow fast and big. Food fish in some parts of the world.

Wow, how big is your tank to keep a 14" fish in?

Does sound like a lavender tang. Have one, not as big, but is a pale colour then gets really dark when eating.
