Lavender Forktail Tang

Name: Lavender Forktail Tang – Small
Scientific Name: Acanthurus nigrofuscus
Maximum Length: About 8
Favorite Things: Ample swimming space, live rock for grazing, plenty of marine algae or seaweed sheets (along with herbivore pellets). A very attractive tang with lavender/tan body tones and a forked tail.
Best Buddies: Compatible with most reef fish (wrasses, gobies, clowns), but like all surgeonfish/tangs, keep only one of its species or ensure very large tank if housing multiples.
