Description

Please Note: Unless specified as "WYSIWYG" (What You See Is What You Get), all fish images on this website are stock photos that represent the fish of like and kind. Due to natural variations within species, your item may not look identical to the image provided. The approximate size range may also vary between individual specimens.

Blue Hippo, Regal Tang (Paracanthurus hepatus)

Care Level: Easy
Temperament: Peaceful
Diet: Omnivore
Reef Safe: Yes
Minimum Tank Size: 180 gallons
Max Size: 12 inches

The Blue Hippo, Regal Tang is one of the most recognizable and sought-after fish in the marine trade, featuring an electric blue body, bold black markings, and a vibrant yellow tail. Its striking appearance and active swimming behavior make it a top choice for large reef and fish-only aquariums.

This species thrives in spacious, well-established tanks with plenty of open swimming space and rockwork for shelter. While generally peaceful, it can be territorial with other tangs, so careful stocking is recommended. A varied diet, including marine-based algae and herbivore preparations, helps maintain its health and coloration.

Retail Appeal:

  • Instantly recognizable and highly sought-after species.
  • Active, vibrant, and a standout in large aquariums.
  • Hardy when properly acclimated, making it a great long-term investment for hobbyists.

Stock the Blue Hippo, Regal Tang to attract customers looking for an iconic, show-stopping addition to their marine aquariums.
