All the following fish have been sold.
Recently moved and have decided against fully setting the tank back up as I'll likely be moving again in the near future. Rehoming the fish and coral a bit a time. First batch of fish are the tangs I'm looking to rehome.

Purple tang (named Skittles) is about 5-6" long and decently thick. He is definitely the "alpha" fish of the tank but is a gentle giant and enforces a peaceful tank. Will swim around your hand and scraper waiting for food. Per the previous owner, skittles should be around 15 years old. He/she is not a shy fish and will always greet you when you walk up the tank. Price: $175

Yellow tang is a decent size but not close to the purple tang, however, that doesn't stop the yellow tang from trying to instigate with the purple tang, who will either completely ignore the yellow tang or occasionally give a gentle tail smack back. The yellow tang is approx 6-7 years old per the previous owner. He is probably 3.5-4" but not as thick as the purple tang. Price: $150. PENDING

Hippo tang is probably 5" as well, however, is much more skittish than the purple and yellow tang. Usually is out and about swimming but once your hand goes into the tank he/she will hide. Not sure on age. Very peaceful and never squabbles with any other tang. Price: $100 PENDING


Yellow Eye Kole Tang is approx 2 years old. Personality is very outgoing and is probably the craziest tang in the tank but works extremely hard to clean the rocks. I only say he is crazy based on when I added a mirror (hoping it would distract the yellow tang from annoying the purple tang) the kole tang turned into a maniac and would not stop trying to murder his reflection. Smallest of the tangs probably 3" max. Price $125

Might as well add the fox face as well
Fox face rabbit fish is a little bit bigger than the hippo tang and gets along great with everyone. For some reason seems like he/she enjoys hanging out with the yellow tang the most. Price $100. PENDING

Preference will be given to a person who is able to rehome multiple of the fish as they seem to have established a peaceful community. Currently in a 180-gallon tank. Located in Langhorne Pa, 19047. Will not ship the fish.
