你知道吗how cool一条特定的鱼必须是利瓦夸里亚（Liveaquaria）自己的导演凯文·科恩（Kevin Kohen），才能坐在镜头前告诉我们一切吗？至少要像夏威夷的异常黄色唐一样酷。
Aberrant reef fish are much rarer from Hawaii than they are from Indonesia, and usually it involves a white yellow tang like Casper, or more unusually that recent black & white moorish idol from Kona. But this black striped yellow tang is a new aberration for our records, and this fish has the potential to be one exciting show pet fish for some lucky person’s reef tank.
To be clear, this isnotone of the numerousKoi scopas tangs from Java Indonesiawhich have the ability to change color quite dramatically. Quite the contrary, the aberrantly colored yellow tangs from Hawaii usually hold their color, and whoever gets this little gem is going to be in for quite a treat.
The black markings make a neat stripe across one entire side of the fish, and on the other side they break up into two stripes across the dorsal and anal fins. These are the promising kind of traits we might expect from a future lineage of domesticated captive bred yellow tangs, but for now, since we have to rely on the flukes of wild caught fish this specimen is going to be one of a kind for a long time to come.
这条酷鱼将在Liveaquaria的潜水员书房in the coming weeks, and we can’t wait to see the full pictures of this little guy after his wysiwyg photos are posted and shared.
