    The big deal is when other reefers that know what they're doing look at your tank they will be jealous. It's kind of like driving a Ferrari to the race track.

    Alright here's the deal on the black tang... My guys wording was as such "I just got a shippment in from Hawaii, I got a few nasos, Achilles, couple yellows, a couple hippos, and a black tang"... So when I get there, I find that it's not a Hawaiian "longnose" black tang like we all thought :'(

    it is a random black tang that has the nose type of a hippo or a powder blue tang... I couldn't identify it because I've never seen any tang like this guy!

    So needless to say I was very dissapointed when I left his house and I'm sorry for getting everyone this excited lol

    O trust me... He already had that one sold but I am planning on getting one from him on his next Hawaii shipment. He lets them go for $69 which is an amazing deal for an Achilles!

    yes, now that you say that, a whitecheek is probably what it was... however pretty black for a whitecheek.

    And a good price i might add, to get a whitecheek for 29.99 is still a steal!
