Tomini Bristletooth Tang

(Reef: Yes)(Grows to-6")  They exhibit typical tang behavior and do not readily accept other tangs in their territory.  They will accept meaty items offered but their diet must be focused around algae.  They are grazers on live rock and will eat mouthfuls of detritus, sift the algae through their bristle-like teeth and spit out the unusable matter.  Plenty of live rock should be present in a sufficiently large tank to keep them healthy. (Ctenochaetus tominiensis)
