Gold Rim / White Cheek Tang

White Cheek Tang

A stunning surgeonfish featuring a jet-black body accented by a brilliant white cheek patch, vibrant yellow dorsal stripe, and electric blue highlights along the fins. An active, open-water swimmer and excellent algae grazer, the White Cheek Tang is highly prized for its striking appearance but is best suited for established marine aquariums due to its sensitivity during acclimation.
