Prionurus punctatus
Prionurus punctatus, or the yellowtail surgeonfish, is a large surgeonfish found in schools in rocky areas. It is covered in beautiful black spots, but make sure your tank is large enough for this fish.
Like other tangs, it will eat meaty foods, but 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.
