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. Species in this genus have a large number of bristle like teeth that are used to scrape organic matter off the reef and substrates. The Two Spot Bristletooth will grow to be about 8" in size. Full grown adults of this tang will need around 100 gallons; however, you can get away with smaller aquariums when they are juveniles. At first glance they may not seem very colorful with their orangish brown bodies but the blue lines and spots really help it stand out. They inhabit the coral and rubble areas of the deep lagoons and seaward reefs of the Indo-Pacific.
