weileong's 4ft tank - Part II

[weileong]

ID the tang already.

Acanthurus gahhm aka Black surgeonfish

It says

Characterized by having 2 longitudinal bands on the side, one from the hind margin of the eye posteriorly, another from the groove around the caudal peduncle spine anteriorly. Juveniles of less than 5 cm SL lack the anterior band; less than 10 cm SL lack the posterior band. Reaches 24 cm SL.

So it is confirmed since mine is less than 5cm and lacks the two longitudinal band.

har? blur liao..

celibate or not...chevron tangs turn dark when old.....

of coz all of us have tangs which are monks or nuns.....who can really have a pair of tangs that really produce little tangs?

even when we have more than one of the same kind of tangs together...it's effectively a monastery or nunnery
