FS: purple tang and pair of true percs

[Jamie1210]

Some fish for sale:

purple tang is about 4-5", eats like a pig, had him for over a year--no pics $60

pair of onxy true percs--female retained her coloring, but male lost his colors due to rose BTA hosting. male can easily gain his colors back. both are healthy as heck, had for about 6 months. came from the Sumatran Islands (as Liveaquaria diver's den said) $80 for both.

Bump for good fish!

True percs loose their color when hosted by RBTA's? I wondered why mine lost their color.

To all who inquired, here's a (lousy) pic of the purple tang.

A lot of them will lose their blacks when hosted by a RBTA, but this isn't the case for all of them. The orange should stay just as bright, though.

Hi, Jake, np about the tang. I'm glad that he's getting a bigger home in your friend's tank!

If you remove their rbta, the black comes right back (I've never done it myself), but if you check RC's clownfish forum, a lot of people show their before rbta, after rbta, and rbta taken away pics

purple tang went to his new home today, he's happily at home in a forest of hair algae and a few different caulperas.. Thanks again, really sharp looking fish..
