The Eiblii Mimic Tang is a captivating and unique marine species, known for its juvenile mimicry of the Eibli Angelfish (Centropyge eibli). Juveniles display a vibrant orange-striped pattern reminiscent of the Eibli Angelfish, serving as a protective adaptation against predators. As they mature, they transition to a more subdued olive-brown coloration with a lyre-shaped tail and a white-edged fin, distinguishing them from their juvenile form. This transformation adds an intriguing dynamic to reef aquariums.
Size: Typically grows up to 10 inches in length
Country of Origin: Indian Ocean
Latin Name:Acanthurus tristis
Care Level: Moderate – requires a well-established aquarium with ample swimming space and stable water conditions
Eiblii Mimic Tangs are herbivores, primarily grazing on marine algae, and may accept prepared herbivore foods. They are generally considered reef-safe, though they may occasionally nip at soft corals or sessile invertebrates if not well-fed.
