Description: Lollypop Tangs or Powder Brown Tangs are cousins of the Powder Blue. They grow to a size of 6" in larger aquariums. They do require a UV sterilization as they are known to get parasitic infections. Caution should be taken when mixing tangs, especially those of similar body shapes. A diet rich in vegetable matter should be fed as they are herbivores.
