New scores
5.5" Red Sea regal angel, 4.5" yellow belly hippo (with red fin markings at top you can't see in photo) and an Aussie harlequin tusk --- that looks suspiciously like an indo, but they swear it's an Aussie. It is small (3") and I've heard young ones are tough to distinguish... I will keep in contact with blue zoo aquatics (where I got the hippo and tusk from). The regal was an eBay score believe it or not!

me too but I never wanted to drop the 350-450 they run for a 5-6" Red Sea variant. This score was off of eBay. Very happy he's beautiful. In the photo he's stressed and lost much of his color believe it or not. He's coloring up better in his qt at the moment.
Guy said he had him in his shop (place in ny) for 6 weeks and he ate flakes pellets and frozen, anything you put in there. Got him for 200 shipped.

Yes; Paracheilinus octotaenia, and exactly why it's one of my favorites.

Beautiful fishes! I saw two 3" to 4" Aussie HT in a LFS over the past weekend, and they looked like that Aussie adult ones with the vibrant orange and black colors. I've had bad experiences with BZA and there are lots of threads on RC or maybe even here about their bad practices. I don't think you got an Aussie. On the regal angel, is it eating?

Yeah, I am hoping once he is established and his color returns (stressed now) that he will look more like an Aussie. I contacted BZ and they assured me it was an Aussie. They already ticked me off once, they know better than to do it twice. The whole world will know of my issues.
The regal tang picks at food but has not "eaten" it yet that I saw. He may have but I hesitate to call it eating yet. He had only been in the QT (in cupramine I might add) for 3 hours when I tried to feed. My money is on him eating tomorrow or the following day. He looks well-fed, and was allegedly established for 6 weeks in their system eating flakes, pellets, frozen, everything.
I will tempt him with black worms and my magic mix of frozen food soaked in garlic guard, selcon, and cod liver oil
