Ella Forsyth –
This tang has been in my 100-gallon reef tank for six months and is very active. It doesn’t eat corals or damage polyps. The white tail and yellow eye make it a striking addition to the display. Easy to spot and peaceful with other fish.
Benjamin Pullman –
I bought this for my intermediate reef setup. It’s grown steadily to about 4.3 inches and seems healthy. It’s not aggressive and doesn’t chase smaller fish. A good choice for a colorful, calm tang.

The fish arrived healthy and has adapted well to the tank. I appreciate the clear size range listed. It’s a beautiful addition to the community and doesn’t cause any stress to other tank mates.
