Has anyone seen these Tangs locally ?

But not as Big as a Naso or Sailfin - 10-13"

According to your link the only go to 9 inches, i have seen in a tank one of 15inches, nasos reach 18-24 inches, sailfins around 15 inches but they get very fat with it.

I have learnt from you to double check

So I was sure they are under rating

Blue Tang, Caribbean Blue Tang, Atlantic Blue Tang, Acanthurus coeruleus

Yep, the folk that put most of the info up are trying to sell therefore they have an ulterior motive for tank size etc, whereas in fact the blue/caribean tang gets big and shits like a cow so care is needed.

Yeah but it is still a pretty fish, definitely on the wish list for the 2000L tank
