looking for pic of mature eibli tang
I've got this juvi eibli that I took in from a friend who was moving. I just recently started trying to find more info about him and I can't seem to find a picture of a mature fish. Im guessing it will look similar to a chocolate tang but I don't know. Anyone have a eibli that's all grown up?

If you do a search on RC for mimic tang you should find some pics of what it will look like as an adult.

the mimic tang gets a dark gradient on the back of its tail instead of staying dominantly "silver"

I started a thread a couple years ago with similar questions. See post 11 here to get an image of a wild Acanthurus tristis in the adult form.

I figured you searched by eibli tang since that is what you called it in your post. A search by mimic tang should have brought up several results, including the thread crvz posted. They are cool fish, probably my favorite of all of the tangs I've owned.
