Yes, and mine is now gone to the LFS. I kept mine until it started to turn colors and then it was starting to get agressive towards my zoos and kenya tree coral. Seemed to be fine as a juvenile.

Mine was about that size. I had bought a used tank and he came with it. They thought he would be ready to change soon. They had him for about a year and I had him for 3 months. His tail started to turn first. The tip started to turn really bright blue and then the red on his sides started getting the blue spots as well. I wanted to keep him until he finished his transformation but my corals wouldn't have lived.
