Tang ID?

[kingtut]

I just bought a tang today at my LFS and was told it was a blue eyed kole tang. I have searched the internet and have found nothing of the sorts. Anyone confirm that this is what they say it is or any idea what the correct ID is? Here is a link to a picture of it

I paid $35 for it at my LFS. My first attempt at keeping a tang, so far so good. He is very active at mowing down the outbreak of hair algae I have and looks happy swimming in an out of my rock formations
