Hi fellow reef enthusiasts,
I took these three photos of this juvenile Bristletooth Tang in a tank in the back of my LFS. Neither myself, nor the LFS are quite confident as to what type of Bristletooth Tang this juvenile is. I have searched all over online and have found numerous similar looking juveniles but nothing definitive enough to feel confident making a positive ID. I would greatly appreciate any input on what type of tang this is. Answers based off of personal experience and with images are ideal. I have my own thoughts as to what it might be but to prevent this from being a leading question, I will refrain from including it in this initial post.
Best,
reefrubble
