Yes I agree more important than the name is that it is an exquisite fish.

Despite MY best efforts to get S. doliatus in on a special order, no, none ever came in on a special order that I know of. However, did one day a couple months ago (on a tip from another Canreefer) find out that Ocean City had 4 of them. Went in to check, sure enough, there they were. The guys at Ocean City were like "Gee, I don't know what the big deal is. We get this kind of rabbitfish in all the time, at least once a month or so." Guess it depends on who you order from or something. Guess which shop I frequent a LOT more often than I used to nowdays!! I don't have any pictures closeup of mine yet though as they are too skittish still to stay put when I get the camera out. They were doing a lot better when Catherine's fish were boarding at my house but now they are back to camoflage mode the instant a human gets near the tank.
