    perhaps you could try a kole tang or a clown tang, i think you may have luck with either.

    i had a kole with a yellow and lopezi before.

    edit: or perhaps a achilles tang

    im sure the kids would understand going to community college for the first 2 years. i mean it makes sense fiscally to go to CC, if you forget the fact your buying a fish with the money saved.

    edit: sidenote i wish i went to CC my first 2 years and saved 10 grand

    Well, clown tangs are of the acanthurus genus, gem tangs are sweet. GL finding one though even if you have the 4k to buy one. Chevron tang, Kole tang, tomini tang, lavender tang, yellow eye tang are all ctenocheatus - the juvenile chevron tangs are REALLY sweet! My kole tangs, although hard to keep IME have good personality. I have a clown tang right now who's never had ich, but that seems to be an anomaly with those fish.
