Naso Tang
Snapshot: Also known as the Orange-spine Unicorn Fish. This majesty has a light to dark gray body, with a splash of yellow on the forehead. Its standout feature is its orange lips!
Other tidbits: Can grow up to a whopping 45cm or so! Range extends from the Red Sea through the Indian Ocean to the eastern Pacific.
Bare bones must know: Live-rock fish-only system, or reef aquarium with plenty of swimming room. Spacious size aquarium needed.
Aquarium set-up: To accommodate their energetic nature, these fish demand space! Give 'em a roomy tank with a water flow that keeps things fresh and lively. A secure lid is essential. 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!
