Lieutenant x Orange Shoulder Hybrid Tang WYSIWYG

Acanthurus tennenti x Acanthurus olivaceus

Reef Safe 

The Lieutenant x Orange Shoulder Hybrid Tang is a captivating surgeonfish admired for its unique blend of traits inherited from both Acanthurus tennenti and Acanthurus olivaceus. This hybrid showcases a striking mix of coloration and markings, often featuring the bold body shape and subtle hues of the Olivaceus with the elegant patterns and facial structure of the Tennenti. Because of its mixed lineage, each individual may vary slightly in appearance, offering aquarists a one-of-a-kind specimen that stands out in any marine setup. Commonly seen in aquariums, this hybrid is appreciated not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its relatively peaceful temperament. Like its parent species, it thrives in spacious, mature reef tanks with plenty of live rock and open swimming room, making it a rewarding choice for hobbyists with moderate to advanced experience.

These fish are for saltwater aquariums only.
