The Short Tail Bristletooth Tang (Ctenochaetus cyanocheilus) otherwise known as the Blue lip tang is a species of tang that has a dark gold/brown body with pale yellow stripes on their body, and small spots dotted on their head with beautiful blue lips and edges on their fins. Juveniles of this species look very different to their adult counterpart with bright yellow bodies and almost non noticeable stripes. They are herbivorous, feeding on macro algae and seaweed, and should have plenty of space to swim. They reach a maximum size of 6 inches, require a tank of at least 70 gallons, and should be kept with other fish of similar size and temperament. They are beneficial to reef aquariums as they help remove unwanted algae from corals or rocks.
