Bariene Tang
Acanthurus bariene
Reef Safe
The Bariene Tang, also known as the Barred Surgeonfish, is recognized for its striking appearance, featuring a body with alternating vertical bands of white and dark blue or black. This tang has a streamlined body and a distinctive yellow tail, adding to its visual appeal. It is an effective algae grazer and is generally considered reef safe. However, it can exhibit some territorial behavior, particularly towards other tangs, so it thrives best in well-established tanks with ample live rock for grazing and plenty of swimming space. The Bariene Tang is a dynamic and attractive addition to medium to large reef aquariums.
These fish are for saltwater aquariums only.
Due to variations within species, your item may not look identical to the image.
Measurements are measured from the tip of the head to end of the tail.
