Fed-ex was 5 hours late causing me to stress out big time. Well My tang arrived and seemed fine and I took a a couple of quick pics before turning the lights out to let him calm down after it's long journey. Regards,Tim

Is that your display tank he's in? For a fish that expensive, or any fish for that matter, I would have qt'ed it to make sure it's healthy and eating.
Good luck with it.
 
Some new pics today, he's darkened up. The fish was quarantined for 3 weeks,
Tough to get pics of a black fish with a black backround. Regards, Tim

What kind of fish is that with the bright colored circles (third one of him in the tank)?
 
Well the fish was quarantined by my friend in Hawaii. I know its not exactly how its suppossed to be done but I've been doing this for 20 years and I know the quarantine process my friend goes through with all of his fish from Crosshatches and Bandits to Damsels, they all get a full the full service. I've never had a problem.
Susie Q The fish I think your talking about is holoanthias Borbonius "Jap. Deepwater Blotchy Anthias" They have become available more and more lately.
