For that price, it better poop out either pearls or diamonds. Your choice :)

First time I've ever seen a tang like that- Just thought I would share it with everyone else.

[MJDiP]

Wow.

[demonsp]

Divers Den very cool site. I garuantee you would be the only kid on the block with one of these.

[mojojason]

Pretty cool indeed.

Even if I had the means, I couldn't imagine taking the risk, let alone through mail order. Unless of course it poops diamonds.

a gem tang, nice. wish i had the money for that thing

[Mappelbaum37]

Yeah, it really is an awesome one of a kind fish. Thats why I just bought it....

Just kidden...

But seriously, the day I buy that fish is the day it telepathically transports itself into my tank. (if that just made sense)

[cfarrow2]

That thing is not pretty enough for 3500 bucks!

:lol: there was someone one RC that had a shoal of about 6 of them. Wish I could remember the member or find the pic.

They are nice tangs, but I would rather buy 5 Black Tangs for that price. Just not enough of a WOW factor for me. Guess it is like owning a porsche or a lamborghini......just other things I would rather divert the funds to.

how about an angel?

granted these are awesome fish, but thats a years tuition or car payments for me!
whats the old saying? a fool and his money are soon parted.

[Mappelbaum37]

That angel is awesome. Looks identical to a flame angel other then the coloring is a wee bit off. When someone buys a fish like these 2 at these costs and it turns out to cost more then a fully setup reef tank, then you've got a little too much money then you can handle...

:)

[TitusvileSurfer]

Accept its not an angel...just a black tang with a special ich which is carnivorous to the common ich. The only proven cure.

[Robgixxer]

yeah those two fish would just about pay for a years worth of payments on my new fully loaded pathfinder! LOL and these guys don't even come with a bose 6 disc changer, or heated leather seats and a pimp wood grain package! whats up with that? LOL

[Robgixxer]

actually the fish is probably only worth 200.00 bucks but with todays fuel prices! the diver probably spent 3000.00 filling up his deisel clunker to go get the fish LOL

[downhillbiker]

cheap. i bought 3 of them to fry up for dinner. yum yum.

[ggk1988]

Even with those prices some one will buy it. I can't imagine how anyone could justify it but someone will.

The first time I saw a picture of my dream fish, Genicanthus personatus, I knew it was THE fish for me -- I love angels, and I've never seen something quite as stunning as a male masked angel. I had no idea how rare they were, but later learned that they can cost somewhere between $5,000 and $10,000 US. Very few are caught each year, and they generally end up in Asian countries. If I ever get to see one during my lifetime, either in the wild or at an aquarium, I'll be thrilled beyond words. I know there's no way I will ever have one unless I win the lottery. However, if I did win the lottery, I wouldn't think twice about buying one of these fish (and a huge system to house it) if it was available -- when you absolutely adore a fish (or any animal), sometimes the price tag doesn't matter. If there's a fish that makes your heart sing and you can afford it, I say go for it -- life is short, we might as well enjoy it :D
