    Hi, I have a riding friend that is getting out of fish. He is looking for a home for his old fish. He has an Elongate or Lopez Unicorn fish he has offered me. (Naso lopezi) It seems to be pretty rare and interesting. Does anyone have any experience with one?

    Good and bad news.
    1. They guy didn't know what he had. I'm not positive, but I think it's some sort of Naso Tang. He is generally grey and changes to brown when excited. I'll try to post a picture of him when he decides to come out of hiding. Still a very nice addition.
    2. I managed to pick up 75-100 lbs. of live rock 4 free.

    All in all not a bad deal.
