Maybe scuba lessons would make a good gift?

What great pics, Shirley! Is Shelby now going to have to make a habit of visiting the fish?

I think Doug means that it is a Desjardini Tang and not a more common Sailfin Tang. In any case all your subjects look to be in a good home. Those are neat pictures, thanks Shirley.

OK..yes, it IS a Red Sea Desjardini Sailfin Tang....is the "Sailfin" part not part of the name?
Thanks!

Hmmm...his tail is grayish, with a black spike fin, and yellow stripes on his fins and body...the pics with shelby were taken after one MH had gone out, maybe both, and the actinics were on.
Even the avatar looks bluer than what it really is...
He's a Mystery Desjardini Sailfin Tang! |
