Aquarium Conditioned-Powder Brown Tang

Aquarium Conditioned-Powder Brown Tang, Acanthurus japonicus.

Size: ~3-4 inches. They will reach up to ~8-9+ inches with maturity.

We are excited to offer Powder Brown tangs. They are beautiful! This is a great algae grazer to help keep nuisance algae in check in the aquarium.  This species is known for it's vivid colors. We are feeding them a variety of prepared foods including frozen Mysis shrimp, Nori, LRS frozen nano blend, and a variety of other foods at our farm.

Our Aquarium Conditioned fish are quarantined and observed at our aquaculture facility before offered for sale. We prophylactically deworm all our fish as well as run an anti-parasitic treatment on all of our fish.  

This is a reef safe saltwater fish species. They are generally pretty peaceful but can show aggression towards other tang species and possibly other fish tank mates. We recommend only housing one of this species in the aquarium as they are typically aggression towards their own species. A larger and long aquarium for plenty of swimming space is recommended. We recommend at least a 125 gallon or larger aquarium for this tang species. We do not recommend keeping tangs with any seahorse species for those customers keeping seahorses.
