very nice Aussie Gold Torch, keep the lighting low and you'll be rewarded with those gorgeous, vibrant tentacles staying a lovely golden hue.

It was listed as a juvenile Atlantic Blue Tang at our LFS, and I'm pretty sure those guys know what they're talking about.

Thanks

I'm fairly certain it's an Atlantic Blue Tang. Yellow Tangs don't have any blue markings.

I've had my Atlantic Blue Tang for 6 months now and it's only got a thin blue line around its dorsal fin and eyes, nothing too dramatic. It's just over 2 inches, not exactly what I expected.

I came across this info that there are 3 color stages - yellow, brownish, then finally blue.

How long does it typically take for a juvenile Atlantic Blue Tang to transition from yellow to fully blue?

I remember when I first got my clowns, they stuck to one corner of the tank for a bit but once they settled in, they started venturing out and exploring the whole tank, been no issues since.

Nice find, thanks for the link

Bicolor Blenny sounds like a possibility (Ecsenius bicolor)?
