Zebrasoma flavescens - The Yellow Tang is arguably the most iconic and highly sought-after aquarium fish in the world. Bright yellow in coloration and endemic to the islands of Hawaii, this is a fish we breed in conjunction with the Oceanic Institute of Hawaii Pacific University.
Adults should ideally be housed in a tank of 125 gallons or more. Larger aquariums may support a school of these tangs when added at the same time. The small-size Yellow Tangs are approximately 1.25" + and settle into aquariums much better than larger wild-caught tangs. They can be aggressive towards similar species like the black and gem tangs. Feeding on C1 and C2 pellet and Hikari Spirulina Brine Shrimp.
