I would talk to Richard at CB pets, his fish are always healthy, he may have or be able to get you what you need.

I think fin-addict has them pretty cheap, they are small but I think they are around $17 with the discount.

CB pets quarantines all there tangs, which is extremely important when it comes to blue or regal tangs. As far as money it is better to buy one at $60 than 1 for $30 that die's. A cheap fish is one that you keep for a life time. Fin Addict is a great place also, but I didn't see one yesterday.

..Hope you dont mind me asking, but how big is the tank and how long has it been set up?

I agree with Alton. I would rather spend more and buy fish that live longer and are healthier and thus don't need to be replaced hardly ever and don't spike the rest of the tank when they croak, then save $10-$15. I've tried both ways and have learned from experience.

I don't live in San Antonio, but I would at least start my search with MAAST sponsors- of which a couple were mentioned above...

We have a small one at fin-addict who seems to being doing well. He might be too small though, around 1.5in.
