Finally getting a Chevron Tang!

It feels like Christmas is coming... the anticipation is going to kill me. I am picking up a baby Chevron Tang this week. I have only seen it available 1 time in all my years in the hobby and it was early on (1990's) when I really didn't know much, nor did I have a tank suitable for them. Now that I have a tank suitable, it has been a couple years of searching and asking LFS to find me one to no avail. Just today a local high end coral seller www.reefodyssey.com said they were getting 2 in and I was first to put my name on the list for one. $140 for a 2.5". I should be picking it up on Tues or Wed and will take plenty of pictures once I get it.. until then here is a stock photo of what they look like. :woot:

It will certainly be the most expensive fish I have ever bought. My Potters Wrasse held that title for the last 2 years, but it was only $90. I am going for a "Hawaii" theme with my fish selection it seems... Potters Wrasse, Potters Angel, and now Chevron Tang.

LOL, most people say the other way.. juvi's look much better than adults due to their bright colors.. but either way I like them.
