So happy to bring this guy home today. Took the picture just after he absolutely demolished some mysis shrimp. It’s nice to have an enthusiastic eater after dealing with my finicky yellow tang.

Nice Rhinecanthus rectangulus ! Did they not have humuhumu’s aka Rhinecanthus aculeatus? Beautiful fish either way!
 
Wow that’s a good looking fish. I wish I had a tank large enough!
Same here. Rectangulars get massive!! Over a foot! The 180g recommendation on live Aquaria is way off, I’d say 300g+!

Actually, in Hawaiian both fish are called humuhumunukunukuapua'a and both are considered to be the state fish. I was actually surprised by that the first time I visited there. I saw way more rectangulus there, so that's what I wanted to get.
