[fishoholic]

I'm looking for a kole tang or tomini tang. Basically a small bristletooth tang. Please let me know if you have one for sale or if anyone has seen one for sale at the LFS thanks :biggrin:

Called around to a few different LFS today and they are more expensive then I thought they'd be :sad: $70-100 :surprise: More then I can afford ATM hopefully I can find one for a more reasonable price.

Yah the smaller species of tang seems to be expensive. I got my kole tang for $53 (after bargaining :lol:) but its BIG!

I just bought a 3 1/2" kole for $55 and the little bugger took over a cave and kicks up sand to make room for itself. Hasnt eaten any of the algae I wanted it to eat. Beautiful fish when I actually get to see it. Maybe it will come out in the next couple of days. Good luck with your search!

Ya it's odd I remember a few years ago they were $30-40 and people on here sold them for $20. Guessing cost and shipping went way up on them, maybe harder to get in or something :noidea:

Thanks, Red coral sells them for $50 but I don't think they have any in stock right now. I have one in my 230g that does a good job cleaning up the algae so hopefully I can find one for my 80g that also eats algae.

If you are still in town, I can sell my kole.

Wow. I just bought a 3 inch tomini for $10 from tang daddy. I feel ashamed of my good fortune. No worries, the reefing gods will even it out by having it kill my crocea. Karma and all....

Bob came back into town yesterday.

I was shocked at the prices too. No reason to feel ashamed though, thats just good karma :biggrin: and hopefully your clam will have a long happy life.

Won't any LFS be able to order one for you? Red coral perhaps? Kole's seems to be very sorted after fish. I received heck lot of request to buy off the kole from me when I posted the add.

Red coral and Marine Experience are LFS that have reasonable prices for them $40-50 but as far as I'm aware they aren't ordering in any fish for a few weeks. Business slows down during summer so orders aren't placed as often. Hoping to find one sooner rather then later and not have to pay over $70 for one.

Unfortunately too far. It really sucks that there is a few for sale in BC and Calgary but none in Edmonton that are under $70

Buy it and stop suffering :mrgreen: Will worth the extra $20 :D

I should say the tomini tangs are 70-80 and the koles are $90-100, so it would be $30 to $60 more, which i can't justify. I would prefer a kole over the tomini but if I can find a $40 tomini I would buy it. Otherwise I will wait till Steve or Neal or someone on here in Edmonton has one. Just refuse to spend double the price on a fish.

Oh snap. Now that's too much! With that money, you probably can get a white tail. And tomini's are not cute :twised:

Exactly! Saw what I think was a white tail at Oceans but he said he couldn't remember the name of it but thought it got up to 18". So I passed on it, after we left I started researching it and was fairly certain it was a white tail which would of been awesome and it was $60, still ****ed at myself for not getting it :sad:

RC is having a sale. Can Doug ask Steve to order you one? A happy employee would be a more productive employee. If you are happy, Doug will be happy :biggrin:

Well lucky for me a blue eye kole came up on Steve's list and he ordered it in for me :cheer2: It arrived today and I went to RC and paid for it. I'm leaving to visit my sister in Seattle tomorrow so he's holding it for a few days for me :biggrin:
