Use a container rather than a net when moving or transporting this fish, as its spines catch easily in netting and can cause painful wounds. The spine can also damage the fish's fins and eyes during handling. This species has a large swim bladder that is sensitive to loud sounds, so avoid tapping on the glass near this fish. Once settled and feeding, the Red Squirrelfish is a durable, long-lived aquarium animal.

Unlike many other reef fish, tangs produce comparatively little protective body slime, leaving them far more vulnerable to parasitic attack, particularly during the stress of shipping and introduction. Quarantine before adding to any display tank is not optional for this species; a proper 4 to 6-week quarantine period is the standard most experienced hobbyists follow. Avoid any copper-based treatments in a reef system as copper will harm gut microfauna essential to tang digestion. Once established and feeding well in a stable, mature system, the Blue Hippo Tang is a durable, long-lived animal capable of living well beyond a decade with proper care. When startled, newly introduced fish will often wedge themselves into rockwork and remain hidden for the first day or two; this is normal and not a cause for concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you are buying\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou will receive: 1 Blue Hippo Tang (Paracanthurus hepatus)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColouring intensity and the depth of the blue can vary between individuals and by region of origin; fish from the west-central Indian Ocean may show some yellow on the ventral surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize and exact patterning may vary; please see size options at checkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAs with all tangs, slow acclimation and quarantine are strongly recommended before introduction to an established display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Little Shop of Coral","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53466481066257,"sku":null,"price":120.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/5196\/6737\/files\/BlueHippoTang_b2a829ab-ec45-4f48-994e-17babf4a121c.png?v=1777227252"},{"product_id":"coral-hawkfish-cirrhitichthys-falco","title":"Coral Hawkfish (Cirrhitichthys falco)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Coral Hawkfish, also known as Falco's Hawkfish or the Dwarf Hawkfish, is one of the hobby's most characterful small fish and a perennial favourite among experienced reef keepers who know what they are getting into.

Its body is a deep, saturated ruby red overlaid with intricate white markings across the head, with vivid yellow and orange accents on the ventral and pectoral fins. Males display an elaborate, flag-like first dorsal fin that they raise in dominance displays and courtship rituals with a theatrical flair that is genuinely captivating to watch up close. Despite being commonly sold under the name Scooter Blenny, this fish is not a blenny at all but a dragonet in the family Callionymidae, sharing the same specialised feeding biology as the Mandarin Dragonet.

Purchasing this fish only for a system that already has a functioning refugium, an established live sand bed, and a documented pod population is the most responsible approach. When selecting a specimen, look for a fish with a rounded, full belly and active, exploratory behaviour; avoid any individual that appears thin across the midsection or lethargic. Captive-bred specimens are significantly preferable to wild-caught when available, as they are better adapted to aquarium foods and conditions from the start.

Also known as the Spot-Cheeked Surgeonfish or Brown Surgeonfish, Acanthurus nigrofuscus is not the most immediately flashy tang on the shelf, and that is precisely the point. Its colouration is sophisticated rather than loud: a warm brown to grey-brown body with a soft, unmistakable lavender wash across the fins, a scattering of bright orange spots dotting the face and cheeks, and a crisp forked caudal fin that becomes more defined with age. When stressed or asserting dominance, the dorsal fin and upper back lighten dramatically, sometimes taking on a distinctly yellow tone, giving this fish a visual communication ability that is fascinating to observe in a multi-tang system. Juveniles are darker, showing a deep brown to bluish-black body with vivid orange scribbles on the head that gradually break into spots as the fish matures. A diligent, tireless grazer with a wide Indo-Pacific distribution and a reputation for durability, the Lavender Tang is a natural fit for the reef keeper who appreciates understated elegance and genuinely useful algae management in equal measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we love it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSophisticated lavender and warm brown colouration with vivid orange facial spotting is subtle, refined, and genuinely striking under blue-heavy reef lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne of the most effective film algae and hair algae grazers available in the tang family, working rock surfaces and the glass persistently throughout the day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardy and adaptable once established, with a stronger tolerance for the kind of minor parameter fluctuations that challenge more delicate Acanthurus species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJuveniles display attractive orange head scribbles that evolve into the distinctive spotted adult pattern, making this a fish with a rewarding visual transformation over time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA wide natural distribution across the Indo-Pacific, Red Sea, and Australian waters means healthy, well-conditioned specimens are regularly available in the trade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuggested parameters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature: 22–26°C (72–78°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSalinity: 1.020–1.025 SG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epH: 8.1–8.4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlkalinity: 8–12 dKH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmmonia\/Nitrite: 0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNitrate: Under 15 ppm; stable, established water chemistry with strong surface agitation and high dissolved oxygen is important for long-term health and HLLE prevention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare and temperament\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifficulty: Moderate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperament: Semi-aggressive.

This species is moderately susceptible to Head and Lateral Line Erosion (HLLE), which is almost always diet-related; a robust, algae-heavy feeding regimen and stable, high-quality water are the best prevention. Marine ich and velvet are the primary disease risks, and quarantine before introduction to an established display is strongly recommended. One notable behavioural trait worth understanding: the Lavender Tang will visibly lighten along the dorsal surface and upper back when stressed, asserting dominance, or during inter-tang displays, which can cause alarm in keepers who are not familiar with this species. This is normal communication behaviour and not a sign of illness. Once settled and feeding well in a mature system with established algae growth, this is a durable, long-lived tang capable of thriving for 8 to 12 years with proper care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you are buying\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou will receive: 1 Lavender Tang (Acanthurus nigrofuscus)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdult colouring is a warm brown to grey-brown body with a lavender fin wash, vivid orange facial spots, and a forked caudal fin; juveniles show a deeper brown to bluish-black body with orange head scribbles that evolve into spots with maturity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColouring intensity and the prominence of the lavender wash vary between individuals and will deepen and refine as the fish matures in a stable, algae-rich system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize and exact patterning may vary; please see size options at checkout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Little Shop of Coral","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53487623766289,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/5196\/6737\/files\/LAVENDERTANGAcanthurusnigrofuscus.png?v=1777656827"},{"product_id":"big-eye-squirrelfish-myripristis-amaena","title":"Big-Eye Squirrelfish (Myripristis amaena)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Brick Soldierfish is a cave-dwelling, nocturnal predator from the reef flats and seaward slopes of the Pacific, and one of the more visually dramatic members of the Holocentridae family available in the trade.
