The Orange Stripe Tang is active and colorful. It has adapted well to our 80-gallon reef tank. We noticed it doesn’t harm corals and stays within the tank boundaries. A good addition to a mid-sized reef setup.
Warren Grant –
We’ve had this tang for three months. It’s semi-aggressive but not overly so. It enjoys the algae in the tank and doesn’t chase other fish. Good for intermediate reef keepers.
Joshua Springer –
The fish arrived healthy and vibrant. It has been thriving in our 75-gallon tank. We appreciate its color and movement. It’s a solid choice for a reef tank with some space.
