Key Features:
Captivating Coloration:
The Blonde Naso Tang boasts a mesmerizing golden-yellow body with iridescent hues that shimmer in the water, making it a stunning addition to your reef or fish-only aquarium.
Distinctive Naso Rostrum:
Its elongated, blade-like snout, known as a "naso rostrum," sets it apart from other tang species, adding a unique and charismatic character to your aquatic environment.
Peaceful Personality:
These tangs are generally peaceful and can coexist with a variety of other reef-safe fish species, adding a sense of harmony to your tank.

Endearing Swimmer:
Watch as this tang gracefully navigates your aquarium, creating a soothing and captivating ambiance with its fluid movements.
Care Requirements:
Tank Size:
A minimum tank size of 75-100 gallons is recommended to provide ample swimming space and to reduce territorial disputes with other fish.
Water Parameters:
Maintain stable water conditions with a temperature range of 74-78°F (23-26°C), a salinity level of 1.022-1.025, and a pH level of 8.1-8.4.
Filtration:
A well-established and efficient protein skimmer is essential for maintaining high water quality. Regular water changes are also crucial for reducing nutrient buildup.
Diet:
The Blonde Naso Tang is herbivorous and should be offered a varied diet that includes high-quality marine-based flake foods, pellets, and fresh algae. Supplement their diet with nori seaweed and occasional treats like mysis or brine shrimp.
Compatibility:
This tang is generally peaceful but may exhibit territorial behavior with other tangs or fish with a similar body shape. Provide ample hiding spots and visual barriers to reduce aggression.
Live Rock:
Incorporate live rock in your aquarium to promote the growth of natural algae, which can serve as a continuous food source for your Blonde Naso Tang.
Lighting:
Moderate to high-intensity lighting is preferred to enhance the vivid colors of this species.
Tank Mates:
Choose tank mates carefully, as aggressive or overly territorial fish may stress the Blonde Naso Tang. Ideal companions include other peaceful reef fish, clownfish, gobies, and peaceful wrasses.
