Wow, was that ever a prophetic question!

Ok, seems like we have enough to make a go of this. I'm a little hesitant to volunteer to ambassador this one because my day job complicates matters like receiving a package during the week and then waiting for folks to come pick up (since you never really know when to expect the package to arrive at the door).

I don't mind being the ambassador for the order in terms of organizing the wishlist, but if someone else can volunteer to receive the package, then maybe we have a win here?

I might be able to receive the package, provided I snag the black tang Dave just posted about. I need a bit of a heads up, but it shouldn't be an issue.

Scary! I just posted that I have one...

I otherwise do not have much in the way of unique tangs. It makes most sense to pick up the everyday fish from the LFS.

I've already responded to your Black tang post (its a bit over zealous) and sent you a pm (do I stink of desperation yet?).

We will see - be mindful that because of the rarity of this fish it is cost prohibitive for many hobbyists. It was expensive over 2 years ago when I got mine for my display, and well they have went up.........

I have no fear of fish prices. After a 4 year wait, it will be worth it!

I thought the same way when I got my first black tang. I waited 2 years to get one, and it has been over 2 years since I have seen another one available under 7" in size in the GTA. Regretably the price has gone up for the reasons I noted in the post about this fist. I was advised by my supplier not to expect another one anytime in the near future.
