I have an orange shoulder tang. The juveniles are actually yellow with a gold stripe and they turn to the metallic gray as they mature into adults. As far as tangs go, very docile and a model citizen for a reef tank. They get along well with the other fish and never bother the corals. I do not have a scrap of hair or any other type of algae as this guy constantly grazes the rock work.

Be sure to give them plenty of seaweed and mix it up with mysis and brine shrimp and they will love you forever... Mine actually eats out of my hand and is there waiting for me on the side closest to my front door when I get home.

I picked my fish up off a fellow reefer in the bay area who decide to get a purple tang and did not want to chance the two together.
