Powder Brown Tang

Often confused with the Whitecheek Tang, the Powder Brown Tang reaches a Max Size of 21 cm. It has a velvet-brown body with a white patch between the eye and the mouth, and beautiful red and blue highlights on its fins. It is generally hardier than the Powder Blue but still requires excellent water quality and plenty of marine algae. It is an active grazer that will help keep rockwork clean. While territorial, it is slightly more manageable than its blue cousin but still requires a large tank to prevent stress-related aggression.
