My new desjardini sailfin tang

[Brandon M]

Just wanted to share some pics of my new 7" African Desjardini Sailfin tang. He arrived from Divers Den 2 days ago and is already chowing down on nori in QT. :thumbsup:

He came in a bit skinny, so I'm hoping to get him on frozen food/pellets ASAP to fatten him up. He'll be going into the 315g in about 4-6 weeks.

:bounce1:

Beautiful fish - I was looking at him in DD - glad he got a new (big) home.

That's a nice fish, I remember seeing it on DD. I like the shot where you can actually see his little teeth

Very cool fish going into a nice big home.

Great fish, my favorite non-acanthurus Tang. Should fatten up quickly for you.

I never realized how big of a difference there was between the two kinds of sailfins until I saw some dejardini sailfins at the LFS over the weekend. Truly striking fish.

Here is the little guy I picked up the end of last week.

He is in my 225. and doing great right now. He is definitly on the thin side right now, but eating great. He is about 1.5'' across right now.
