Any blue fish out there-besides hippo tang??
I am looking for a new fish to add to my aquarium and would like to know if there are any BLUE fish other than the hippo) that someone knows of, or has had themselves. I just feel there are more options other than LFS!! And my tank needs some blue color!!
thanks for the suggestions jolene |

powder blue tang (but they are quite mean)
Purple tang (ok, not really blue, but a close color relative. I have seen some that looked to be almost a midnight blue, versus a purple color). blue damsels (I would not personally ever stock them, but they are a bright blue color predominately). I think that there are some fairy wrasses that are blue, but I am not 100% sure (the blue sided fairy wrasse is not really blue, at least not enough so to accoplish what you want *we have 3 of them  *).That is about all I can think of off the top of me head

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
Seriously though, if your looking for something hardy and relatively inexpensive, I love my coral beauty angel.

Brazillian flame back angel is mostly blue (IIRC). The atlantic blue tang that primtime mentioned is also a good choice (although they were hard to come by when we went looking last year to find one for our tank).

I have a pair of watanabei angels in my reef tank (Genicanthus watanabei) and I love them. They are absolutley striking, and perfectly behaved. Not cheap, though. I got the pair for a steal at $150...

Hey-thanks for the great pictures-the one from Dr. Seuss will be the easiest and cheapest to care for!! I'll take 3 of them!
From what I have just been searching, the blue assessor is hard to find-looks like a neat fish-never knew there was such a fish until tonight. Is the fish directly above the Dr. Seuss Book a wrasse?? thanks again jolene |
