- The blue tang's scientific order, Perciformes, is the largest vertebrate order with 148 families containing roughly 9,300 species.
- Blue tangs are capable of adjusting the intensity of their hue from light blue to deep purple.
- Blue tangs are often found swimming in large schools cruising over the reef top, grazing on algae. These conglomerations are often composed of multiple species within the Acanthuridae (surgeonfish and tangs) family.
- The blue tang possesses a sharp spine, or modified scale, located along either lateral edge of the caudal peduncle. These spines may be made to stand erect, providing the tang with an effective means of self-defense.
