Powder Brown Tang (Acanthurus japonicus)

The Powder Brown Surgeon Tang is also referred to as a Japanese Surgeonfish. They need at least 125 gallon tank to be able to swim freely back and forth. Plenty of rocks with caves and holes are necessary for them to hide in if they feel threatened. The Powder Browns can be placed with other tangs as long as they are not of similar shape as it could cause aggression and stress. They love to eat algae and seaweed but will take flakes. Our Powder Brown Surgeon Tang is medium in size , beautiful and healthy
