Orange Stripe Bristlestooth Tang
Snapshot: This beauty sports striking orange spots on an olive body, with blue lines cutting across from head to tail.
Other tidbits: Can grow up to 25cm or so. Widely distributed across the Indo-Pacific region. These tangs are algae-busting machines, keeping your reef tank looking clean!
Bare bones must know: Live-rock fish-only system, fish-only system, or reef aquarium.
Aquarium set-up: Load up on live rock to build cool caves and crevices for them to duck into and snack. These tangs love to graze on algae like it's their personal buffet! 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!
