SRC Member Acanthurus pyroferus Posted July 13, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted July 13, 2004 Should be the bigger naso family , Valmingii , Unicorn etc....they have multiple spines unlike tangs and surgeons...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member ryz Posted July 13, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted July 13, 2004 they're still considered as tangs and surgeons.. still under the family acanthuridae. under different genus though Quote Live and Let Live Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dispar_Anthias Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Tail end should look familiar to many folks here! I am thinking that this may not be a tang..........
