**Two Spot Bristletooth Tang - Ctenochaetus binotatus**

The **Two Spot Bristletooth Tang** is a valuable and unique addition to home aquariums. These tangs display a vibrant yellow to red body adorned with white spots and two distinct spots near their tail. Their bluish-white tail and striking blue eyes add to their appeal.

Reaching up to 8 inches in size, **Two Spot Bristletooth Tangs** require a minimum tank size of 55 gallons. They are semi-aggressive, generally coexisting well with other fish, corals, and invertebrates, making them ideal for reef tanks. However, they may show aggression towards other tangs, especially those of the Ctenochaetus species. To minimize aggression, introduce all tangs simultaneously in a spacious tank and ensure a constant supply of algae for grazing.

Renowned for their algae-eating capabilities, **Two Spot Bristletooth Tangs** thrive in tanks with ample established rock for grazing and territory establishment. As herbivores, they require a diet rich in greens, including nori, marine algae sheets, high-quality flake and pellet foods, spirulina, and mysis and brine shrimp.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the **Two Spot Bristletooth Tang** and its suitability for your aquarium.
