Thank you!
Agreed, and not to be discriminating the fish but when you can spend the same amount on a gem tang, why go for a pitch black tang? at least the wife will semi-approve a gem tang, but I know my wife will never forgive me for dropping a grand on a black tang.
I haven't seen a gem tang that transitions from dots to lines, but again many fish of the same species do bear different appearances based on geo distribution. Even then, I still think it is an attractive fish. Similarly, many people think the chevron tang is only pretty when small, I disagree, I think adult chevron tangs bear striking features with bright silver lines across its body.
Every fish went up in price! I remember the days when damsels cost as much as a betta fish, now you can hardly find any under $10.
True, now let's see if 1) Peppermint angel will ever become readily available, and 2) masked angelfish becomes affordable
