I'm researching my upcomming FOWLR tank, and I was wondering about these fishes... I couldn't find much info that seemed credible, so I thought I'd ask you all...
Orange bar - Acanthurus olivaceus
White Cheek or Gold Rim - Acanthurus nigricans
Gold Rim/Achilies Hybrid - Acanthurus achilles x Acanthurus nigricans (is this the fish Mr. Salty asked about a while back?)
The white cheek/gold rim tang is the only one I've seen available at any of the more reputable online stores. Are the other 2 rare/not available typically for home aquariums?
