This guy is always hard to get a decent shot of. Never slows down!

This is Raj. He's our Dejardini Sailfin Tang. He'll be celebrating one month in our tank on the 23rd of this month. Absolutely love him. He's about 1.5". So cute. Currently he's our only tang. We'll be getting a Yellow Belly Blue Tang this weekend. Very excited to have a 2nd tang.

What an incredible fish, I think you should do a thread dedicated to him alone!

It's funny you say that. I was thinking about it because we just added two black ice clowns to our tank and he thinks he's a clownfish! The three of them are inseparable and he even tried to go into the anemone like the clownfish. It's kind of hysterical.

I would definitely follow along! It's such a beautiful fish and if it's got character like that I can't imagine how much you value having him!

Here's a picture of Lazarus really showing his colors. I prefer his unstressed mellow look he has in the tank. It's really regal looking. The pictures don't do the golden hue justice.

Very nice

Here's a better close-up of Lazarus, which again doesn't fully show off the brilliance of the golden hue.
(He's called Lazarus because after arrival he came as close to death as I've ever seen a fish get and then rebounded)
