I have two fish I new help identifying. Unfortunately I am not computer savey enough to post pics on this thread. Pics are in my photo gallery. If anyone thinks they can help take a look. First is a tang that I purchased beliving it was the hard to find Dussumieri. Never having seen a photo of a Juv. I belived the LFS. But the more I look, the more I think its a Mimic Tang. Let me me know what you think?

Second, is a pic of what I was told was a Racoon Wrasse. He's brown with two gold bands. I cant find any info on this guy. He's a great fish though. He's only about 2-3" and is very reef safe.

If anyone has the time check them out.

Oh, and yes that tang is a mimic. What store told you it was Dussumieri?

The store is in Suffolk County. I sent you a PM so as to not bash a LFS until I see their response. Thanks! Any idea on the Wrasse?
