I've got one I've had for a few years. I like it, but it is different than the juvi color. When mine gets mad, it's face turns pretty white and the stripes/design on the side turns quite silver looking. I think they are nice, but I know some don't care for them as much because they aren't the "eye catching" color they started out as.

not sure they get such a bad rap as adults, I think they are very cool looking. I thought I read somewhere that the Hawaiian caught ones have better adult coloration than the other pacific species (Xmas Islands, etc)
here's two pics I found on the web, I have a juvi one that I've had for several months now, I always get a kick out of people saying they are tough to keep. I think some think "expensive = hard to keep", but these guys are very hardy.

From what I was told last week at an LFS, it's easier to get them to eat than an Achilles. I almost picked up a small one but I decided to research more.
Are both the photos of the adults.not sure they get such a bad rap as adults, I think they are very cool looking. I thought I read somewhere that the Hawaiian caught ones have better adult coloration than the other pacific species (Xmas Islands, etc)
