Default Powder blues at J&L

J&L Aquatics has powder blue tangs on sale with the caption

"These will go fast"

Sadly; They are right.

It's odd to see them with the banner, "SALE!"

:? Maybe they're on special because they don't last as long as other fish?

Maybe the sign meant that they will die fast. :?: :?:

I don't buy fish that are that large, but I have heard they are really hard to keep. I'm kinda dissapointed at J & L for bringing them in... if they brought them in knowingly. If not.... I hope they reamed out the supplier.

Just going on what I have heard though, like I say, I've never bought fish 6 inches long.

aquarium allusions has a pile of them in quarantine right now. unfortunate, because so many people will jump on them. nicest tang by far i think. :? same as selling nudibranchs and gorgonians i guess.

Yeh next time we go in we should all remind them that if a reefer really needs one, they can order one for him.

Ordering a bunch of cheap powder blues, dumping them cheap on a bunch of unsuspecting newbies in not what we reefers expect from J&L

Hi ;AJ, you will see a lot of me soon
