Is this a naso? I pretty sure its not a blonde but it also does not look like a small reg naso tang (color wise), shape wise it does. Its got orange spines on both top and bottom, and the front half of the top spines are black. I figured it was a orangespine, but the colors just don't quite match. It has its got a thin white line that shines blue just under the top fins and it runs down the body.....Hopefully someone can shed some light and tell me what type of tang this is, here are a couple pics to help

When I first bought him the store didn't have time to release him and the bag he came in was a thicker bag which was hard to see through, but from what I could see it looked like a naso to me. When I got him home he was already spotted like in the one pic, and had dark color, I figured it was from shipping. After some time in the tank and he calmed down the color really started to come out more and I could see the baby naso, it was amazing to see the drastic color change they are capable of.... Anyway, thank you for your answer and the time it took you to provide it, it has been greatly appreciated, and very much help.

That is for sure a naso. I have a blonde naso, and when i feed him nori he gets excited and changes his colors like that and gets those white spots. It goes away in a instant, depending on the situation it could be good or bad. As long as he isn't like that all the time.
