A Blue Tang Beside Fan Coral
The Blue Tang appears next to a large Fan Coral beneath the sea. Its flattened body is well suited to moving around reef habitats, while the branching coral creates a distinctive underwater backdrop. The fish's strong natural color pattern makes it one of the most recognizable tropical reef species.
Reef Facts About Blue Tangs
Blue tangs graze on algae growing in reef environments, helping prevent it from covering surfaces where other organisms live. They can shelter within reef crevices when threatened. A sharp spine near the base of the tail is used for defense, which is why tangs are also commonly called surgeonfish.
