The Gold Rim Tang is a striking addition to established reef aquariums, featuring a vibrant yellow body with distinctive black markings and a bold gold-rimmed tail. This active swimmer requires ample space to thrive and exhibits semi-aggressive behavior, particularly toward other tangs. Best suited for intermediate aquarists, it grazes on algae and benefits from a varied diet including marine vegetation and quality flake foods.
