    I did see one at my LFS a couple weeks ago and they had it in their frag tank, he was about an inch to an inch and a half and they wanted $149.99 for him. i considered it too, but then i remembered that i do not buy any livestock from this place because of the quality of fish and the conditions they are kept in. (learned the hard way) but taking a closer look at this little Tang, he had ich all over him and looked really poor. but they still wanted 150 for him.
    i stuck to by my decision of not getting any livestock and just got my filters.
