Can't believe I forgot what kind!!! Too excited. It is a Acanthurus dussumieri (Dussumieri Tang).

This is our smallest and most recent addition to the tank. He is only about 3.5"

Not sure how truly rare (course, everything in this hobby seems to get labeled rare nowadays!), but I have only ever seen one in a LFS and it was in the display tank and he wouldn't sell it (don't blame him).

It does seem that they are limited, I'll put it like that.

I paid $189 ($225 shipped) for the one last night. It might be what prompts me to upgrade from my 225 unless my wife takes me out at just the thought of upgrading!!

Here's a pic of my Male Naso Tang. He's in my 400 G tank and is about 6 years old. HE's pushing 13" now. I've had him for about 2 1/2 years. I also have a female Naso with him that is pushing about 11" now.

Another pic of my male Naso along with one of my yellows and a pacific blue tang. I have 2 yellow tangs in the tank.

My Naso's are about as wide as most peoples fish are. And yes, my corals are that big. The toadstool leather now measures about 18" across. The tank is 7' long for size refference.
 
Man, his streamers are gorgeous (props though for the Leopard Wrasse - one of the best fish I have ever had - mine eats everything!!) Back to tangs - how big was he when you got him?
