dammit, reef beat me to it. Yes, it is a desjardini sailfin tang. needs a minimum of a 135 tank to survive as they can grow to be over a foot in length and 8 inches tall. Big fish, but reef safe.

Re: Putter's first tank

it will take YEARS for it to reach that size. you could have one now, if you were commited to putting up a bigger system after it reaches about 10 inches. we are talking 6 years for it to do that, if you get it at 3-4 inches.

Re: Putter's first tank

No anniversaries to forget. Sweet! Young marriages are such experiences. My first marriage was at 18, right before the army sent me to Nam. The second marriage was to an army nurse I worked with while going through my first divorce, which was right after I got back to the states. My second divorce came about because I stayed in Alaska, when I got out of the Army and my wife, who hated Alaska, went back to the states. My third wife I woke up married too after a two week drunk. Did not even know her. That was the straw that broke the camels back, I quit drinking and drugs and got a divorce. That was in 1992. Haven't married again since. Of course it has a lot to do with my not having drank or drugged since 1992. Entered college in 1994, and I am still attending college. I did have a five year break from school, due to a "vacation" for nearly four years in Florence, Arizona. I have just been going half time since returning to school. Almost done, almost. I should have in excess of 210 credits when I graduate. Have taken a -few- extra classes.

Re: Putter's first tank

Oh, that thing. Yeah, a fish. Fish live on reefs. Reef Forum, reef fish. Oh. Yeah, well, glad you all like the fish. Don't have neither the teeth, nor the big mouth I like in fish. Heaven forbid, it is not one of those peaceful fish, is it? Pretty wild color patterns though.
