I got this tang since when he was a little over 1.5 inces. Now he si a fat 7 inches. Changing to adult coloration but not complete yet

Has the shape of a kole tang, call it a whitetail Kyle tang. Sorry that's my best guess.

C. flavicauda? or a hybrid of it? What did he look like when you first got him?

This tang is 7 inches was 1.5 inches about 1 year ago. White tail with blue huges tot he tail. Dorsal fines with a lot of yellow and ventral fin with a lot more blue

Acanthurus auranticavus but not in full adult colors IMO.

 

[ReefingWerewolf]

He is quite magnificent!

Looks like a fowleri or bariene tang but the tail is white. Maybe a hybrid ?
