Keeping Unicorn Tang (Naso unicornis) in an Aquarium
The Unicorn Tang, also known as the Naso unicornis, is a popular saltwater fish among aquarium hobbyists. These fish are native to the Pacific Ocean and can be found in the waters surrounding Hawaii, Fiji, and Australia.
Aquarium Requirements
The Unicorn Tang requires a large aquarium of at least 180 gallons, as they can grow up to 20 inches in size. They also need plenty of swimming space and hiding places, such as caves or live rock. The water temperature should be between 72-78°F with a pH level of 8.1-8.4.
Diet
The Unicorn Tang is an herbivore and should be fed a diet consisting of marine algae, seaweed, and spirulina. They may also accept some meaty foods, such as brine shrimp or mysis shrimp, but these should not make up the majority of their diet.
Behavior and Compatibility
The Unicorn Tang is a peaceful fish and can be kept with other non-aggressive species in a community aquarium. However, they may become territorial towards other tangs or fish with a similar body shape. It is best to introduce them to the aquarium first before adding any other fish.
