The Blue Hippo Tang has been a great addition to our 100-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and active, and it doesn’t bother the corals. We’ve had it for six months and it’s thriving.

This fish is hardy and easy to care for once the tank is set up. It’s a good choice for intermediate reef keepers who want a colorful, active fish.
Edward Davidson –
We were cautious about adding a tang, but the Blue Hippo Tang has adapted well. It’s not aggressive and stays in the middle of the tank, which is perfect for our setup.
