Who else keeps a Harlequin Tuskfish?
 
Just picked mine up from OA. Thanks again, Jim & Wendell.

Here it is:

Just love the look of this fish. So does my mom (who insisted I needed more bright red in my new tank) and Irene. She's wanted one in my tank for a while.

So, who else keeps one of these beauties?

You know I do and Green Spotted Puffer used to have one. That's the only ones I know about.

Oops, forgot the pic of mine.

Yup, read all that before I bought the fish. Have been a big fan of wetwebmedia for years.

If my friend Richard doesn't set up a huge tank in the next couple of years to take home his fish, I'll be looking to upgrade to a 6' x 30" x 30" or 7' x 30" x 30" but in acrylic (too heavy otherwise) for a big fowlr.

I gots one.....we should be mentioning if they are indo or aussie. Big price difference and everyone says they are nicer from aussie but Im not sure I have been able to tell the difference to date.

Mine is indo

Darryl, if you go to Live Aquaria there's a good side by side pic of the two varieties.

Mine's Indo too. Beautiful fish nonetheless. Couldn't afford an Aussie one anyways.

I've got one..had him for a couple of years. Bit of a bad citizen at times to my tangs...but he's gorgeous! I'll try to get a pic
