Naso Tang

The Naso Tang  comes from Western and Central Pacific.If you plan on keeping a Naso  Tang, they spend much of their time grazing
for algae so have plenty of live rock for them to graze on. They will also feed
on dried algae or seaweed attached to a lettuce clip. This tang (and tangs in
general) requires highly oxygenated water so make sure you have plenty of water surface agitation and/or air stones.

Use caution when netting a Naso Tang because of the blades at the base of their tail fin. The blades can easily get hooked into the net. If this happens, gently move the net back and forth in the aquarium until the tang is released.
