Just as some freshwater fish need a lot more than just a tank of fresh water to thrive, many marine species have special needs way beyond just salt water. This magnificent powder blue tang Acanthurus leucosternon on our cover requires extremely pristine water quality, plenty of room, and a diet based on macroalgae. Two of this month’s features address these issues for tangs and other popular species: Bill Rosser’s “Feeding Marine Fish the Right Way” (p. 86) and Jeremy Gosnell’s “Tackling Misconceptions About Popular Marines”.
