Description

Mimic Tang reaches a Max Size of 25 cm and mimics the Eibl’s Angelfish as a juvenile. As an adult, it transitions into a subtle grey-brown body with a dark "saddle" around the gill area and a white-rimmed tail. It is a peaceful member of the Acanthurus genus and is a tireless grazer. It is slightly less common in the hobby but is equally hardy and beneficial for controlling algae growth in mid-sized reef systems.
