Blonde Naso Tang

Blonde Naso Tang, also called the Orange-spine Unicornfish matures and darkens. In its juvenile stage, it's gray with stripes of yellow along the dorsal as well as the anal fin. After maturation, the body develops the appearance of a darker gray-blue-gray along with the youthful striping gets enhanced with additional colors. The tail is transformed into a lyre-like shape, with two patches of yellow appearing on the peduncle spines that are close to the tail. A black, thin mask appears between the mouth and eyes and the lips turn the color of yellow. Naso Tangs found in Hawaii tend to be more vibrantly colored than those from other places.

A 180-gallon or bigger aquarium must have ample swimming space and hiding spots and secure lids in order to keep the fish from jumping off to escape. It can be aggressive with other tangs but is calm with the other fish within the tank.

While Tangs are known to eat meaty food alongside others in aquariums, it's crucial that they receive ample amounts of seaweed that is marine-based and algae. This will boost the immune system of Tangs, lessen aggression, and boost their overall health. Provide dried seaweed that is tied to a rock, or the veggie clip, and feed them three times a week. Sea Veggies, Seaweed Salad, and Ocean Nutrition are all ideal products that are simple to prepare.
