I'm jealous Mike, and let me know how it looks....

congrats...

[Mr. Tang]

You know I don't think God wants me to have this fish I ordered the tang and money was exchanged via paypal and wait for the fedex tracking email to show up today. So I wait all day and decide to call around 3 oclock to see whats up.. They say they actually don't have them in stock I said "Why did you talk my money if you knew you didn't have the tang??" Their repsonse was we will call you back within an hour. So two hours pass and no call. I finally call them back and they said they would kept my money until the fish came in and than ship it without QTing first. I said no thanks!!!!!!! I'ld like a full refund!!! They said OK, it would take a day to do it. I hope they don't forget!!!!!

sorry to hear that Mike...... when did they say they expect them in?

[Mr. Tang]

Thursday But I don't think they QT their fish upon arrival, could be a problem???

[reefcouple]

i think its a "crap shoot" anytime we buy online.. i highly doubt 95% of the suplliers qt thier fish (jmo)..

[Mr. Tang]

Well if you look up fishselections, they don't show a achilles tang but they do special order them. In fact they are located in LA and they go to the dealers every morning around 5 o'clock to see the new inventory that comes in. I talked to a guy named Eddie and he said they could get them via "special order" I have ordered a 3.5" Yellow Belly Hippo Tang!!!!!! We'll see??????

[reefcouple]

i think you will like your hippo, mine has alot of personality, last night it was picking the crabs up off the reef, swimming backwards to the upper corner of the tank and dropping them.... funny fish and doesnt mind my hand in the tank, when i needed to qt it a couple times i just picked it up with my hands lol, didnt faze it at all... you will enjoy it...

That is so cool that your tang is so friendly reefcouple. Usually, tangs are very timid. That is why when my hippo died from Lateral Line Head Erosion Disease I chose to go with a puffer for their personality and hardyness. I have a little dogfaced puffer named Duke and he/she is loaded w/ personality. The only drawback is that I can't have any inverts in my tank or Duke will devour them.

IMHO, MR. Tang, you should hold out for the Achilles tang. It is such a cool fish and will soon be rare in the aquarium trade.
