Description

The Yellow Eye Spotted Kole Tang, also known as the Yelloweye Surgeonfish, is a beautiful and hardy fish species that is perfect for reef tanks. It has a brownish body adorned with tiny yellow spots, and its striking yellow eyes are a distinctive feature. This fish is known for its algae-grazing behavior, which helps maintain a clean tank.

Kole Tangs are peaceful and do well with other peaceful fish, although they may become territorial with other tangs in smaller tanks. This species is an herbivore, feeding on a variety of algae, spirulina, and herbivore pellets, making them excellent at controlling algae growth in a reef tank.

The Yellow Eye Spotted Kole Tang requires a well-established tank with plenty of live rock for grazing. This species is reef-safe, meaning it won’t harm corals or invertebrates, making it a popular choice for marine and reef aquariums.
