Clown Tang
Acanthurus lineatus
The Clown Tang is popular with experienced aquarists due stunning colouration. Best kept individually as it will fight with other similar looking tangs and other fish competing for food. This is the most aggressive tang available so should be housed singularly
It requires a tank of 600 litres or larger with plenty open water for it to. Tangs will eat meaty foods, but should also be supplemented with vegetarian matter like Nori to keep them healthy. They usually adapt well to frozen and even dried foods, but benefit from the addition of some vegetable material like Nori.
Approximate Purchase Size: Medium 4cm - 6cm
