    Thanks for the heads up. I wanted a tang, but the purple is a must. Not to crazy about the price though, $130.00 ouch!

    I havent had the same issue that Red Gambit has....mine is fairly docile and was added in the middle of stocking. Maybe because he was small to begin with...IDK. This fish has also been extremely easy on care. Eating frozen food from the beginning and I also feed nori every day.

    Here is mine:

    If you plan on ordering one from Liveaquaria, the price normally drops to 79.99 for the medium sized one on their site. when its on sale, which is like once to sometimes twice a month.

    Beautiful fish. Mine is very active and playful, will follow you around the tank begging and gets along great with my other fish.
