Description: The Unicorn Tang is a blue, silver color with blue edges on the dorsal and anal fins. This fish originates from the Indo-Pacific and develops its “horn” when it reaches about six inches. This tang will need a mix of meaty foods and seaweed, A tank upgrade will be needed when fully grown. A protein skimmer and UV sterilizer are strongly recommended, as this fish is prone to disease. Feeding vitamin C on pellet food everyday can help with disease prevention. Use caution when mixing tang species. We do not recommend mixing the Unicorn Tang with other Naso sp.
