这个小牛是一个你berrare purple-tail-purple-tang, only第二个标本同类曾经记录下来。这紫色紫色上周末,佛罗里达州阿西(Aci)将佛罗里达州的阿西(Aci)带到了美国礁石水族馆的爱好。
This medium sized individual was hands-down the star of the show and although the excitement surrounding this fish bordered on excessive, everyone really was thrilled to be able to see a fish which is often destined to bee-line to the private aquariums of affluent fish collectors. Objectively, a standard-issue yellow tail purple tang is more colorful than the紫紫色,但是这种青春期的鱼也身体健康,状况良好。
它的身体颜色是充满活力的李子紫色的,具有明显的栗色眼睛,鼻孔和胸鳍上有黄色的口音。尾鳍的边缘上甚至还有一丝黄色的淡淡,但大多数是,脸上的黑斑在身体上变成条纹的斑点继续并填充在尾巴上,您期望看到黄色的颜色。
阿西(Aci)的紫色尾巴紫色唐(Purple Tang)也在近乎完美的展示中,以真正欣赏它的美丽 - 一个中等大小的水族馆,只有其他几条鱼和一条巨大而五颜六色的Homaphyllia Bowerlia Bowerbanki Colony。Kessil AP700还帮助突出了鱼类和珊瑚的所有颜色。
Although the purple purple sold for an order of magnitude more than its yellow tail counterpart would have, at Reefapalooza Orlando this weekend everyone got to enjoy this sensational fish by simply coming to the show and stopping in the ACI booth. I think part of what made this fish so exciting is how many people’s eyes lit up when they saw a very familiar fish with a very rare twist, and watching people point this fish out to each other was incredibly fun as well.
