Why We Like It:

This rare hybrid between the Powder Blue and Goldrim Tangs blends the best of both—electric blue body, golden highlights, and a dramatic face mask. It offers the bold movement and striking beauty tang lovers crave, with a unique pattern that makes every individual stand out. Best kept in spacious tanks with strong flow and plenty of algae to graze.
