    Default $100 fish

    Good grief when did Purple Tangs get so expensive? $8 tax brings it to almost $100... durn thing better last a LONG time.

    I wonder if you can tattoo a fish, that would be pretty slick.

    B&B had a nice one for 80. Oh yea in the early 90's they were over 200. Shipping from the red sea probably had something to do with it.

    Baby Purple tangs look great because of the black spots. As they get older, they loose the balck spots and do not look good anymore IMO. I like a nice yellow tang in my tank more than a purple.
