They are a magnificent fish and well worth getting if you have the right tank . I have never seen one in a home tank but the downtown aquarium has one and its awsome ! ! !
 
do google search and click on images tab. you will see a few different but they are definatley beautiful fish. I saw some while snorkeling in Cozumel. Very cool!!!! A must for any saltwater aquarium lover.

Here is a pic of one

Are you getting the 6" one from Divers Den? I was seriously considering that one as well.
It is not a Durgeon. It is a Hawaiian Black Niger. They are AWESOME!!! They have blue in them. Unreal fish.

Ocean - I would jump all over that trigger if you can. They are not rare, but are collected at only certian times of the year. I would love to have him in my collection (in fact it is sitting in my shopping cart!@!!!), but I am stocked to the hilt right now.
I am hoping that it there are some collected when my big tank is put in.
