![]() I've had one for over a year now. It has become one of the favorite fish in my tank. Its adult coloration is starting to come out and is turning into an awesome looking tang. I haven't seen any aggression towards my other tangs either which is nice. This includes another acanthurus species (powder blue) I have in with him. As I'm sure you know, they have the potential to get quite large, mine has quickly outgrown all my other tangs.

![]() I have had one for the last 6 months or so and I must say it has to be one of my favorite tangs. The colours on a happy fat Barrinne are subtle but sweet! Lets just say I sold my Powder Blue because he just could not get over having a prettier tang in the tanK! Does not seem to be much of an ich magnet or at least never showed much of an out break. My Powder Blue would get a little ichy when ever a new tang would enter the tank but it would go away after a few days. I use Garlic Gaurd, Imunovitt and Lipovitt soaked food and good clean water and that seems to help the fish fight it off.
In my opinion, do yourself a favour and pick one up! If you have the room and all the stuff the Tang Police provide! Sheesh! Keith, |

![]() Ya, they're nice looking fish, but I read the part about potential aggression and the size. I doubt a captive specimen will get to be 19 inches, but 10 would be nice. For now it will be about 4 inches going into my 90 for a week or two, then into the 180.
