CFOh Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 My Guess ======= Pic 1 aka left pic = Indian Ocean (body with dots) Pic 2 aka right pic = Hawaiian (body with stripes) Thanks, bro onizuka, I think is too easy for tangs lover Ya, first one is from Indian Ocean from African coast to Andaman Sea and slopes = Indian Gold-ring Bristletooth (Ctenochaetus cf Strigosus), the 2nd one is from Hawaiian Islands = Hawaiian Gold-ring Bristletooth (Ctenochaetus Strigosus) Some info extract from book "Surgeonfishes Rabbitfishes and thier relatives by Rudie H Kuiter, Helmut Debelius, pg 78 & 79) Indian Gold-ring Bristletooth (Ctenochaetus cf Strigosus) An undescribed species, previously misidentified as Ctenochaetus Strigosus. Widespread Indian Ocean from African coast to Andaman Sea and slopes, often in small aggregations, usually in less than 15 m depth. Readily identified by the bright yellow around the eye and the numerous pale spots all over the head and body. Juveniles are usually bright yellow with irridescent blue margins on dorsal and ###### fins. Length to 18 cm. Hawaii = Hawaiian Gold-ring Bristletooth (Ctenochaetus Strigosus) Appears to be endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. Various shallow reef habitats, often in small aggregations. The name has been broadly used throughout the Indo-Pacific for several other species. This species is distinctive in colouration as juvenile and the bright yellow eyes show particularly in the darker adults. Aa common species in the Hawaiian Islands, reaching a length of 18 cm.
