| Video Discription | The surgeonfish belong to the Acanthuridae family. They are a very ancient fish, with fossils dating back more than 50 million years to the Tertiary period (Eocene). These species are clearly distinguished from other fish by the spine or spines located on each side of the caudal peduncle, the base of the tail fin. These spines are either foldable or fixed. They are blade like and quite sharp, similar to a scalpel. As a group they are all known as Surgeonfish and Saltwater Tangs. The name 'surgeonfish' is derived from their unique scalpel-like spines. The name 'tang' is derived from the German word 'Seetang' which means 'seaweed' and relates to their feeding habits. But several different groups within this family are also known as Unicornfish, Sailfin Tangs, and Bristletooth or Combtooth Tangs. The popular 'unicornfish' are from the Naso genus. They are called the Unicornfish because some of the species have a horn-like projection on the forehead. The term 'sailfin tang' is most often applied to the popular species in the Zebrasoma genus. The Ctenochaetus genus are often referred to as 'bristletooth' or 'combtooth' tangs, due to their nature of feeding. Atlantic species from both the Acanthurus and Prionurus genera are sometimes referred to as 'doctorfish' tangs. [4KKtWKx_7MQ] |
