Going to pick up my Half Black Mimic right now! Will have a few pics up as soon as it's in my tank! Has anyone seen this tang? Looks just like half black angel! Rare, and beautiful!

Well, from the research I've done on this fish, it starts off at $79. Pets R Us had it and didn't even know what type of tang it was. It was marked as a black surgeonfish for $24. Got it for a steal!!

I think it's a great move going for 29g to 55g tank. I think things work out better with the larger tanks then smaller ones. I had a 15g tank that kept crashing on me constantly. I am thinking of getting a 30 or 40 gallon biocube now, for some dartfish, and seahorses.
