Achilles Tang – アカツキハギ – Paku’iku’i

Achilles Tang (Acanthurus achilles) アカツキハギ – Paku’iku’i – size 25cm
Achilles Tangs are very common in Hawaii. I thought that I had seen them over here in Japan too. I can’t find any pictures of them though. I read that they were first found in Japan in 2003. I will be on the lookout for them. Kauai 2013

Achilles Tangs are very common in the surf zones in Hawaii where they graze on algae. Kauai 2015
