Powder brown tang — size comparison — facts and sources

The powder brown tang has a brown body, large white area between eye and snout and an orange dorsal-fin accent. It inhabits the western Pacific from Sulawesi through the Philippines to the Ryukyus.

It occupies shallow, clear lagoons and exposed reefs, grazing algae alone or in groups. The trade name powder brown is also applied to Acanthurus nigricans; a much larger white facial area is among the features distinguishing this species.
