I set out to buy a yellow tang but I got a blue one also.  The guy sold them as a pair wouldn't seperate and the two swim side by side.  They think they are twins. :laugh: :laugh:

I am not sure.  It just grew out of this rock.  A piece broke off and I have noticed it is growing in the back of the tank on another rock.  It's really nice looking.  The blue tang likes to take a nip at it every now and then.  Could it be some sort of algae growth?  If anyone knows please tell me what it is.

Hey Styles, would you mind taking a close up shot of that next time you have your camera out?

Hey great idea!!!   :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
It's not a xenia nor a polyp.  It's more like a plant.... a bush.  It feels like a bush and the hippo tang loves to eat it.

I will try to get a much closer photo tomorrow.  I wish I knew how to put this thing on manual focus.  I will pull the manual out and read it. ;D
