The Desjardini Tang has an oval body shape with vertical brown and orange bands with yellow highlights. The sailfin doubles in size when raising its dorsal fins if threatened or excited.
The Desjardini Tang is a great addition to a fish only or reef tank, and they can even handle their own with more aggressive fish in larger systems. Provide lots of live rock for grazing and shelter. This fish is hardy but requires an adequate diet; feed them well.
Tangs will eat just about all fish foods; Ocean Nutrition Pellets are a perfect diet. Feed tangs with plenty of marine-based seaweed, as this will keep them healthy. Try putting seaweed on a veggie clip, or break into small pieces and feed 2-3 times per week. Ocean Nutrition Seaweed contains garlic which helps the immune system in these colorful fish.
