any differences between the yellow-headed and the dusky? Anyone have any personal preferences, my lfs is going to order me one. Can probably get either one...I have no LR, no LS, and CC substrate, 46 gallon

Not very much.
Yellow headed, opistognathus aurifron, max size 4" good reef fish, needs deep sand bed for burrowing in. Eats most foods.
Dusky, opistognathus whitehursti, max 3.9" same basic needs, have heard that they like to jump out of tanks, get top on.
Look at a blue spotted jawfish; they have great colors. They really do need a sand bottom for best results.

If I were to spend $150 on any fish, it would be a blue spotted jawfish. Not yet though. Look them up. THEIR BEAUTIFUL!
