Convict Tang
Snapshot: Rocking a sleek, shimmering, silver body with six bold black vertical stripes, spaced evenly from head to tail. And don't miss the pop of yellow accenting its dorsal fin.
Other tidbits: Can grow up to 20cm or so. Extends from East Africa through the Indo-Pacific region nd eastwards into the tropical waters of the Pacific Ocean.
Bare bones must know: Live-rock fish-only system, or reef aquarium with care.
Aquarium conditions: It's all about space and shelter. Load up on live rock for munching and sneaky hideouts, and keep that water moving just right. 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!
