I really like the yellow belly tangs compared to the blue tangs. I haven't found one in LFS so thinking of getting one online.

However, I have heard the yellow belly ones lately have been not good quality and more pale in color. Is this true? Is the blue on the yellow belly guys more muted compared to the normal hippo tang?
 
I like the color of the blue ones better. The yellow belly, although rarer really subtracted from the bright blue color of the blue tang.
