The **Kole Yellow Eye Tang** is a vibrant and beneficial fish for aquariums. With a predominantly reddish-purple body adorned with horizontal lines and facial dots, this fish is easily recognized by its striking yellow eye. **Kole Yellow Eye Tangs** grow up to 6 inches and require a minimum tank size of 55 gallons. They are generally peaceful with other fish, corals, and invertebrates, making them ideal for reef tanks. However, they may show aggression towards other tangs, especially bristle-toothed varieties. To minimize aggression, house multiple tangs in a spacious tank, introduce them simultaneously, and ensure a constant supply of algae for grazing.

These tangs are excellent swimmers and thrive in tanks with ample swimming space. They are also efficient algae eaters, constantly grazing on algae-covered rocks, so having well-established live rock is beneficial. As herbivores, **Kole Yellow Eye Tangs** need a diet rich in greens, including nori, algae sheets, spirulina, high-quality flakes, pellets, mysis, and brine shrimp.
