Contact Ali @ Amazing Aquarium and Reefs. He was asking if I wanted a yellow tang and flame angel. I had to pass because I just added some tangs. Tell him you heard it from Jimmy and he might sell it to you. Ali is quite selective on what he is selling, LOL.

Wow - amazing. I’m surprised that LFS doesn’t like dead presidents! lol

Well, if you offer enough dead presidents, he'll sell it. LOL.

I tried to buy his powder blue tang, gem tang, blue starfish, even the starfish leg! Got denied.

Wow — guess you’re not worthy? I’ll probably got thrown out of the store for attempting to buy some salt! lol

btw: Gem Tang came down in price over the years. A friend of my bought it for $3500 a decade+ ago and said that it was a steal! You can now get one for $500 — for me, it’s stealing (by the seller)! ;)

Ali is doing a lot of cool things. He's like experimenting and prorogating, so I'm cool with it.

And I'm trying to buy the fish in his displays, and it clearly says fish NFS in displays. LOL.

If you haven't been, he's got one of the better shops around. Lots of cool displays. No pressure either, haha. They have a couch there, so you can just relax and talk reef with people coming in.

Ali doesn’t sell to you if he thinks you can’t keep it alive, or it’s fairly rare and he wants to keep it for his own enjoyment. Gem tangs also dropped in price because they opened a new collection area. So they became less rare and less expensive.
