My Tank Thread
I always see threads about top one or two tangs on everyone's list.
Let's focus on appearance, not practicality.
Here's my list:
Favorite tangs:
1) Achilles (I've got 2)
2) Powder blue (got 2)
3) Chevron juvenile (1)
4) Purple (1 also)
5) Yellow belly blue (1)
6) Sohal (1 now also)
7) Desjardini Sailfin (1)
8) Clown tang (just sold to allow for Sohal)
9) Blonde naso or naso (1) (depending on specimen)
10) Atlantic (Carribean) blue tang (very underrated IMO, just sold one)
11) Powder brown (1)
12) Yellow tang (1)
13) Sailfin
14) Kole
15) Convict
vlamingi tangs don't do it for me at all, neither do scopas, tomini, unicorn, black tangs, gem tangs (mostly because I'm not paying 3gs for a fish), or really any others.
I admit a gem tang is neat looking but maybe 2 or 300 dollars neat...
Some of the more rare tangs are pretty neat on a case by case basis.
What about you guys? Rank your top 10 or 15 favorites?
I would be interested to see who is almost always in the top ten!
