The Powder Blue Tang is one of the ocean's most striking specimens—a living jewel with an ethereal blue body that catches light like polished sapphire, accented by brilliant yellow fins and a distinctive black gill plate. This XL individual at 5.5" showcases the vibrant coloration that makes the species legendary among reef enthusiasts.

Maldives-sourced specimens are prized for their robust health and exceptional color intensity. At this mature size, you're acquiring a fully-developed, established fish ready to thrive in your aquarium—not a juvenile that may lose its brilliance. This particular animal demonstrates the deep, saturated blue that collectors seek.

A semi-aggressive personality means this tang commands presence without dominating. Intermediate care demands are well worth the reward: a stunning focal point that transforms any 75+ gallon reef into a professional-grade display. Watch it graze, patrol, and interact with confidence.
