Add a one-line explanation of what this file represents
Description Among its many attributes, the beauty and personality of the Sailfin Tang make it an outstanding addition to a marine aquarium. Like all seven of the sailfin tang species, when the fins of the Sailfin Tang are fully extended its height is about the same as its length, giving it a disk-shaped appearance. Though very similar looking to its close relative the Desjardin's Sailfin Tang Z. desjardinii, it is more common and is less expensive. It is hard to tell the difference between these two when they are young. As adults however the Pacific Sailfin Tang retains its attractive juvenile appearance though becoming less yellow, while the Desjardin's Sailfin Tang will change stripes for spots and lightens in color. They will both get quite large, in fact they are the largest of the Zebrasoma species.
