weileong Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 i only like the back part of the fish....the front part abit drabby hor actually may not be very rare also hor.. tat time say lta tang like very rare... now ML comes 2 tanks of it ya lor the back part is very nice..... the front part so so oni..... That is why I always buy the LS based on how beautiful it is and not based on how "rare" it is.

roidan Posted July 3, 2004 Author Share Posted July 3, 2004 i think beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder lah... anyway, tangs that are rare can become not rare overnight when the market gets flooded with them....like last time lta tangs cannot find in weeks/months..now suddenly got alot....just like jewel now, next time will have alot also.. cos in the ocean really alot so forget about rare tangs and all the drooling and slurping over them.....just buy tangs you like at least now you can have your shoal of lta tangs wah liew...my maid today put too much vinegar in the teochew mee *sniff sniff*..now i smell vinegar in my room bo bian have to eat....otherwise hungry..... bo herr hei ma ho 无鱼虾也好<---- Advanced Aquarist (March05) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member danano Posted July 3, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted July 3, 2004 Lta tang alot nicer then this one leh thought this Jewel rare one but ever seen before liao......Lta so nice until even Dan kenna stun and purchase one.... yah, i was gonna wait for a small AT then I saw the LT and thought... hmmm... and then , wow!! Unique!!! Did some research first of course. And the colour improves with age/size. So that's pretty much it as far as tangs are concerned... 3 small ones (abt 3" each) for my 4ft... a purple, a kole and a lieutenant. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member patrick123 Posted July 4, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted July 4, 2004 wow...seems like the fashion now is to go with the rare and difficult to find tang. Really need to have a well connected network with the LFS and a lot of money to do this. hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weileong Posted July 4, 2004 Share Posted July 4, 2004 Patrick, go with something that you like rather than not so common.
