The Vlamingii Tang, Naso vlamingii, is sometimes known as the Bignose Unicornfish, Vlaming's Tang, Vlaming's Unicornfish, and the Zebra Unicornfish. The adult Vlamingii Tang features a beautiful blue/grey body with scattered electric blue spots all across. In juveniles, these blue dots are even more visible over the Vlamingii's brown/orange body. These colors change as they grow and mature, even after reaching adulthood, the Vlamingii will often morph colors depending on its environment and mood. Only one Vlamingii (or Naso) Tang should be kept per tank, unless in a very large aquarium, lids should be kept tightly sealed as the Vlamingii is a great jumper and may try to escape.
