Wtb: black tang

[Maximus]

If anyone in the Bay Area knows where to find a black tang, please let me know. Thanks!

I think I saw one at Aquarium Concepts when I was there on Saturday. Might give them a call.

 

[Maximus]

Thanks Tim. I'll give them a call tomorrow.

Exotic had a few when I was there last. They also had some nice Conspicillatus Angels and lots of other raritys.

where's exotic at prodman? thanx in advance for helping.

 

[nova62]

exotic is in sacramento

I saw it on Saturday. Probably no more than 3". I saw what might have been HLLE, but nothing a little spirulina wouldn't fix. It was $299.

Is this exotic aquarium you are talking about?

Sang, Whitie's in Fresno got two in. Gone in 60 seconds though. My new tank is ready. That will give me an extra safe holding tank. So if I find one, I'll pick it up for you.

 

[Maximus]

Thanks dude! I would really appreciate that. I called Exotic now and they are medicating the tangs. Looks like I will stay away from those. Btw, where are the pics of your tank! I can't wait to see it.

 

[tacocat]

I finished most of the plumbing. I may have pics soon, but I need to get my new front door back from Angelo's Wood. It looks weird without it.

 

[Maximus]

Sounds great Hector. Post those pics as soon as you can.

What sizes are you looking for?

 

[Maximus]

I'm looking for a small one, hopefully around 2-3".

one on ebay...$20 current highest bidder...shipping i think like $30 really nice...You can see it on a video of the actual specimen...

Auction ends in two days i think...

 

[Unarce]

Would it kill them to put a rock or some PVC pipe in there!?! Poor thing looks stressed and has HLLE

 

[Maximus]

Yeah, just saw that Karl. Thanks for the heads up Raymond

May I ask why??..

I bought a fish that was medicated and the poor thing died after several days. I'm not sure what medication was used but the water was yellow/copper color. I'm just wondering if the fish died because of this..

 

[Maximus]

Well, I dont like anything to be medicated prior to purchase. It tells me that the fish was sick. I do not want to purchase a sick fish.

I don't think the tang on ebay has HLLE, but I could be wrong. All black tangs get the white line at the base of the dorsal fin naturally as they age. The one that James had at Aquascene had it and Ming's is getting it now.
