Lipstick Tang · Naso Tang · Orangespine Unicornfish

Tangs & Surgeonfish

A large, elegant tang with striking orange lips and brilliant orange scalpels at the base of the tail. Naso tangs grow large and require a very spacious tank, but they are relatively peaceful and adapt well to captive life. They are omnivorous and benefit from a varied diet including meaty foods alongside algae.
