So I've had this tang for about a month now, one of the most unique regal tangs I've come across. The person I purchased him from said he had him/her for two years and was always this way.

I've tried to do some research but I cannot find anything. Hopefully the video is clear enough to show you the difference between it and my other regals.
(Edit, video doesn't work hopefully picture is clear)

I've noticed when it's feeding time, the black will lighten and yellow will come through, and you can slightly see the unique black stripe that regals typically have.

This fish is very happy, and healthy (quite fat). Wanted to see if anyone else has experienced this or seen one.

Nice fish. I've seen this a few times before in regal tangs with varying degrees of black but only one or two full black. It's definitely uncommon and something special.
