Naso lituratus
Naso lituratus, commonly known as the Orangespine unicornfish, is a beautiful large unicornfish which needs plenty of swimming space. It can be aggressive towards other fish, especially tangs and food competitors, but will be the showpiece of your aquarium. It looks very similar to Naso elegans, but N. elegans has a yellow dorsal fin, where N. lituratus has a black dorsal fin.
It it's important it can graze on algae/seaweed the entire day to ensure it will stay healthy. So feed flakes/pellets multiple times a day and make sure there is always seaweed available.
