Fish Supplies

The Yellow Eyed Tang is a Hawaiian Tang that is smaller than other varieties. Because it’s smaller, more people are able to own one of these amazing fish. It’s a useful algae-eating fish that will rid or keep growth under control. It's yellow-gold to tan in color as a juvenile then changes to a maroon to bluish purple as it matures. This Tang will be aggressive towards other Tangs so it is recommended to keep only one per tank, also avoid others with the same body shape. It will accept meaty foods, but is primarily a vegetarian and should be offered a variety of vegetable based foods such as dried seaweed and marine algae at least three times per week to keep its immune system healthy and colors vibrant.
