The tang arrived this morning at around 9:30 and it is beautiful! It is acclimating now. This fish is close if not over 6 inches. Here are some pictures. More to come...

The yellow belly is in the tank and doing well. My yellow tang isn't liking him too much but won't go too near him because the yellow tang is a bit smaller then the yellow belly. The yellow belly has eaten and even started to bug my cleaner shrimp to clean him. Which the cleaner shrimp did. He is still getting used to his new home. I'll post pics later when my whole reef is open and everything is in bloom.

Absolutley GORGEOUS fish. The yellow on it's tail is striking and really accents the yellow belly. Also the blue circle looks great.
So what are you going to name it? I suggest Regina.

Well Regina, since you *ahem* helped him buy it, it is only fitting that he name it after you.

Actually Regina is my last name (I know, odd for a last name), but it still works.

( I think all big hippo tangs look like there names should be bubbles)

Shhhhh, we don't have to tell the fish that. What it does not know won't hurt it..

But then who am I to talk about naming animals. I am looking at our female sister kittens Fred and Stanley.

The tang is dead!!!!! Just kidding. I didn't take pictures today because I was at an "underground" fish/coral store buying a load of corals to add to my tank. I got some AWESOME items I must say. I won't, however, say what I paid. LOL. I'll take pics of the whole tank with the YB in it tomorrow, but for now, here are just a few pics I quickly took of it in the tank. More will come...
By the way, I think Regina is a good name for the tang.
