| − | + | |diet=:Primarily grazes on algae, provide a healthy established reef system and supplement with foods such as [[spirulina]]. May accept small meaty foods like [[brine shrimp]]. | |

| − | :Very difficult to visually sex this fish. | + | |environment_specifics=:Difficult to keep in captivity. Prefers very large tanks with lots of swimming space. If it's environment and food is not perfect, it can be susceptible to diseases such as [[Ich]]. In the wild it lives in the surge zone of the reef, therefore will appreciate a wave maker in captivity. Needs a salinity of around 1.020. |
| − | + | |behaviour=:A territorial fish towards other Tangs or fish that resemble Tangs in body shape, peaceful towards other fish. | |
| − | + | |identification=:Striking orange on black markings. Typical oval [[:Category:Tangs|Tang]] body shape, black base colour with white edging to fins and gills, orange tail and a tear drop shaped orange marking at the base of the tail. These markings will show true when the fish is mature, and may differ in juveniles. | |
