What kind of tang is this?

I did something stupid. I was at Petco and they had "Assorted Tangs" for $15, so I saw the fish that I wanted. I bought it, but now I'm thinking I may have screwed up because, I don't know what kind of tang it is or how big it gets.

Any ideas?

Forgot the picture

 

a pic would help!;D A tang for $15, wow thats cheap

 

Picture's up there now

Sorry, I had to edit the post.

 

Im not sure thats a tang. Do you know if its a adult or a juvi

 

I think it's a juvi. It's only about 2" long and 1-1/2" tall right now.

 

I looked through the book and I cant find that fish in the tang section, adult or juvi. sorry

 

Thats actually a surgeonfish, same family as tangs, but no idea on a positive ID.

 

I hope this isn't the answer.

I'm afraid it's this fish..... it is way too large for my 55 gallon tank.... I know, I shouldn't put tangs into the 55, but I was hoping that it would be just a little tang like a kole.

This is the closest fish that I can find to him.... and if that's true.

I'm pretty much hosed.



Vlamingi Tang, Bignose Unicornfish, Naso vlamingii, also: Vlaming's Unicornfish or Vlamingii Tang

 

It is defiantly in the Naso family. he's gonna be a very big boy some day.

I would look for a local club and see if someone has a large tank who could take him.
