Bare bones must know: Live-rock fish-only system, or reef aquarium.
Aquarium set-up: These fish thrive in a top-notch aquarium setup where they can snack on algae straight from rocks and stones. They love cozy hideouts, so deck out the tank with live rock nooks and crannies! With a passion for gliding around, they’ll need plenty of room to show off their swimming skills.Maintain an aquatic utopia by nailing the basics: rock-solid water quality with top-notch filtration and routine partial water changes.
Feeding: For tangs, algae is king! Load up on algae-based essentials like toasted nori sheets, algae flakes, and pellets. And for a gourmet twist, treat them to frozen brine shrimp enriched with spirulina. It's an algae feast fit for royalty!
AQT note: All our fish feast on a diet of seaweed, marine pellets, flakes and frozen treats under our care. Keep the feast going in your tank!
