Photo #11 - Regal Tang/ Surgeon Fish. She Is Not The Typical...

saltwater fish - paracanthurus hepatus var. - blue and yellow hippo tang stocking in 220 gallons tank - Regal Tang/ Surgeon fish. She is not the typical electric blue as she is from a different part of the ocean. Her blue is more colourful now, this pic was taken when she was first put in the tank and was a little stressed
