Beautiful fish as a juvenile, and elegant as an adult

Comments

This is an excellent showcase fish. Generally easy to acclimate to captivity, and captivating in coloration as a juvenile, this fish is suitable for most reef tanks over 100 gallons. As with most bristletooth tangs, this fish is peaceful towards tankmates with the possible exception of other surgeonfish (especially those in the Ctenochaetus genus). I'd highly recommend this fish if you have the tank size to accommodate it.

Liked about it	Amazing coloration, peaceful towards tankmates, and may even help clean rocks of excess wastes.
Didn't like	Very little to dislike about this fish other than the price it commands, you'd be hardpressed to find one under $150.
