I love that tang ;)

I'm glad to hear your SPS seem to be ok. I've been trying to grow acro frags in my mainly softy reef for a year now and they always seem to die back. I thought it was the softy chemical thing. Oh well, I'll keep trying.

Yeah know what you mean, my lfs had one in when I went in to buy my orange shoulder and I very nearly got it instead - it was gorgeous.

My lfs is a 5 hour round trip away and we went specifically with a fish wish list to buy our last fish addition. The list consisted of - orange shoulder tang, naso tang, foxface, pinktail trigger & blue throat trigger. We thought they'd have one if we were lucky and that would be the decision made. Unfortunately, they had every fish on our list and the Vampire and an unidentified tang which was similar to the Vampire but not quite the same sp. Well that just took the biscuit - it took us over 2 hours to decide and we still came away with both the Orange Shoulder and the Foxface :eek:
