Tangs are commonly referred to as surgeon fish due to having a sharp spine that looks like a "scalpel" at the base of their caudal (tail) fin that is used for protection, use caution when handling. Adults tend to live alone in the wild, so they should not be kept with fish that look similar, like other tangs. However, they should be peaceful towards most other tank mates. Adult Powder Blue Tangs are found in shallow, clear coastal and island coral reefs up to 25 meters deep in the Indian Ocean to Western Pacific. They may occur singly or in large feeding groups. They will grow to be about 9" in size and have a blue body with a white chest. Their head is a dark blue to black coloration with a white band below their eyes. The Powder Blue Tang had a vibrant yellow dorsal fin while their anal and pelvis fins are a bright white color. Full grown adults of this tang will need around 150 gallons; however, you can get away with smaller aquariums when they are juveniles.
