Description

The Bristletooth Tang has lateral thin wavy lines down its thin body. When mature, the body color becomes more solid, the tail becomes blue, and the dorsal and anal fins turn an orange-yellow shade.

 

They have durable mouths and bristle-like teeth they use to feed with.  A very peaceful fish but only keep only one per tank.

 

Have plenty of live rock in your tank. Tangs will graze on the live rock and it will provide necessary hiding areas and swim pass-throughs.  

 

Tangs will eat just about all fish foods; Ocean Nutrition Pellets are a perfect diet.  Feed tangs with plenty of marine-based seaweed, as this will keep them healthy.  Try putting seaweed on a veggie clip, or break into small pieces and feed 2-3 times per week.  Ocean Nutrition Seaweed contains garlic which helps the immune system in these colorful fish.
