The Zebra Barred Tang (Acanthurus polyzona) is likely the rarest surgeonfish to grace a fish tank, certainly ranking in rarity with the famous Gemmatum Tang. This surgeon is native to the Western Indian Ocean near Madagascar, Comoro Islands, Mauritius and the Reunion Islands; a distribution nearly identical to the Gem Tang. There is little-known data on the habitat of this beautiful tang, but it is believed that they are collected in rocky mangroves and near tidal pools. They occur on reef flats and coral reefs around 15 meters deep. At Quality Marine, we are feeding them a mixture of Gamma Frozen Foods, Nutramar Complete Pellets and Nutramar Nori. Click to learn more
