what kind, and how big was that first tang. we saw some of those in maui and I swear they were over 18inches. HUGE!!! But alas "Mr. Fishtank" as my wife called me sarcasticly, didn't know what they were.

thanks

He is called a yellowfin Surgeonfish - or some call it an eyestripe!!! He was about 22 inches....there are a bunch of them and they get over 2ft long....

Absolutly amazing. Probably the most amazing pics I have seen on here.

Those pics just inspried me to begin learning scuba.

That Naso is unbelieveable!

 

[Ron Leversee]

Thanks Jason....I will say that the Naso, "Orange Spine" is one of my favorite Surgeon fish... They get huge!!! They don't seem to be intimidated when you approach them either....

We could always use more scuba divers for sure!!!
