Naso annulatus
Naso annulatus, commonly known as the Giant nose doctor, is a very large unicornfish which needs plenty of swimming space. As a juvenile it looks like a silver tang with a white ring around the caudal base. As they grow larger, they develop a very long ‘nose’.
It can be aggressive towards other fish, especially tangs and food competitors, but does live in schools, so conspecifics are usually ignored.
Like other unicornfish, it will eat zooplankton, especially when adult, but it's important it can graze on algae/seaweed the entire day when it is still young, to ensure it will stay healthy. So feed flakes/pellets multiple times a day and make sure there is always seaweed available.
