Good Price Hippo Tang?

Has anybody seen any hippos for a good price? I just lost my Dori and my daugher keeps looking for her. I got my first at Fishy INC for $15, too bad it got stuck to my powerhead.

Thanks,
John
 
John, $15 is an excellent price. Not sure if/when you'll see that again. Most Hippo's I've seen lately have been in the $50 range. How was your fish doing before he got sucked into PH? Sure he wasn't sick or dead before that happened?
 
Guys,
You should both understand that Tangs in general, particularly Hippos are well know for their susceptibility to ICH. This is a problem that is compounded many times by stress. Because Tangs are not "couch potato" type fish, keeping them in "small" tanks causes them stress, increasing the likelihood of illness that will spread to other fish in your system.
If you're looking for a definition of "small tanks" 54 and 75 both apply, IMO.
