It's really hard not to be in love with my mandarin! :)  Once you have one, you just know.

That's a STEAL!  This will be my next fish, but I'll be lucky to get one for less than 60.

I only have 3 fish in my tank so it's pretty easy to pick my favorite.  It's my Scopas Tang / Cherub Pygmy Angel combination.  They are always together, the Scopas is a leader, the big brother, kind and gentle and the Pygmy Angel is the little brother, always following, scurring around and playing peek-a-boo in and out of the rocks. But on the other hand there's the Pyjama Cardinal just sitting there and looking pretty.  Guess in different ways, they're all my favorites.

In that case Lance I would have to say a Sohal or Achillis tang OR a mandarin. The mandarin is attainable soon but I will never own the others haha

i've kept a couple sohals before but ended up getting rid of them because they are extremely agressive to the other tangs. and i always contiplate on trying out an achillis but with the sucess rate so low i haven't took the plunge yet.and i bought another mandarin just yesterday

I keep hearing that about the sohals, too bad really they are a nice looking fish. I understand completely the achillis thought.
The lfs brought in 2 mandarins the other day that were 3 times bigger than any Id personally seen. about as round as a half dollar.
Once my pods take off I will be considering another mandarin since the murdering dottyback is no longer in the tank.
