Description
The Naso Tang, also commonly known as the Lipstick Tang, is a vibrant saltwater fish that is popular among aquarium enthusiasts. It is known for its striking coloration, with a dark blue or purple body, yellow tail, and a bright red stripe on the tip of its mouth, which resembles lipstick - hence its nickname.
Reef Safe
Yes, but with caution. They may nip at large-polyped stony corals and soft coral polyps.
Environment
The Naso Tang prefers a tank with plenty of live rock for grazing, hiding, and also for territorial purposes. They require strong water flow and good lighting.
Behavior
The Naso Tang is a peaceful fish that gets along well with other species. They are active swimmers and need plenty of open space. They are also known to jump, so a well-sealed tank is necessary.
