When I was diving in the Caribbean I saw a ton of Atlantic Blues and they get huge! They are from really light blue to darker blue. I didn't see any that dark, but defiantly has the vibrant blue outlining it. I wouldn't go with it though.

Hi Ricko I have to Agree with Adam It is a Atlantic Tang. I have on I started it in a 75 gallon tank while it was a juvenile, They are all yellow when babys
mine was 1 1/2" long when I got it they sure have a nice outline and mine is quite clumsy I had to remove him from my sps tank as he would tear up the tank so much I have had him since the fall of 2005 here is some shots of him
Peacefull when full grown..Jeff

Your fish is awesome, i'd be proud as mate.

Ok after finding out that i can get the Atlantic blue here, i also found out it is a $300-$400 price tag so that idea is down the drain.

Would a Kole tang be a better idea? I don't know a thing about them except they are prone to a mouth disease of some sort but otherwise heard they are peaceful.

Yeah would like a powder blue but the missus really wants a Kole.

Kole and the many bristletooth tangs are great reef tank inhabitants. I own a Tomini Flame-Fin and am very fond of it. Wife calls it Birdie

Does anyone know much about the mouth disease these bristletooth tangs can get??
