As an adult, the body colour changes to an olivaceous colour with the posterior half much darker, and the orange shoulder marking becomes much more vibrant and pronounced with a dark blue-grey ring around it. With maturation, the tail also becomes more lyre in shape. An adult can reach a size of approximately 12 inches. ￼\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHabitat\u003cbr\u003eNative to the Indo-Pacific, where it can be found up to 150 feet below the ocean’s surface. ￼ It often forms schools with parrotfish, tangs, and other species of surgeonfish, all of which have similar diets; their grazing is important in maintaining biodiversity. ￼\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehaviour\u003cbr\u003eDespite its size, the Orange Shoulder Tang is generally semi-peaceful. It can coexist well with other large, non-aggressive fish but may show dominance toward other tangs, especially those of similar body shape.
