Thanks Guys, I Just Wanted To Share With The Best Reef Site. And I Have Been To Them All. Ya Know, It's All Relative, If I Was Rich(and I Ain't) I Would Spend 3000 On Him, I Can't Say Exactly Why, I Guess I Have Been Doing This Soooooo Long That I Know How Rare He Is, And He Is Also A Very Hardy Tang Kinda On The Yellow/sailfin Level.....so Is He Worth 3000???? To Some No.......to Me...every Penny. Jeff Is A Lucky Guy, And A 1300 Gal Tank Will Be Perfect For Him......speaking Of Envy......1300 Gal Tank, And Probably The Most Rare Fish In This Hobby.
