The Scopas Tang comes from many different areas in the Indo-Pacific. This fish is light brown in color on the face and transitions to a dark brown color towards the caudal fin. This tang is great for grazing on algae in the reef tank. Tangs are especially prone to disease, so a UV sterilizer and protein skimmer are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED. Do not mix with other Zebrasoma sp. tangs OR proceed with CAUTION.
