Tang ID

[olaywolay]

ignore the marks in the first photo, this was from a month ago, he was darting around hiding in rocks and scrstched himself up.

anyways, i was told this is a white tail kole tang, which it does seem to be, just wondering why hes not purpleish? got him from a guy on marketplace at a very good price, any ideas? had him a while hes perfectly healthy

Maybe just a color variation? I have a mostly white and black watchman goby

Looks like a very pale white tail bristle tooth tang to me

Body shape and markings wise he's definitely a white tail bristle tooth, but I've never seen one that color before. You could try enhancing his color by adding more krill rich foods to his diet.
