Hey Levi, tank is looking awesume ! For your tang I'll make a guess at it being a Yellowfin (Acanthurus xanthopterus) They come in many different shades of color, but they get quite large 24" I think. Does it have any yellow markings around its eye ?

I owned a Yellowfin that outgrew my tank so it certainly isn't one of them, the Yellowfins have a distict yellow line pattern that flash is missing. They are similar looking though.

Funny that you posted this Tony as I was on live aquaria and thought the same thing, I'm far from a fish expert but I would almost infer that he seems to be a Epaulette/ Orange Socket Hybrid? Either way he's getting big really fast, I have plans to upgrade to a 350g display when Devan moves into my house (Seems we will be having a joint tank together *Cringe*).

Greg you Cherry Picker... go stand by the net more plzkthxbia haha.
