Description
Bignose unicornfish (Naso vlamingii) is a marine fish native to the Indo-Pacific, where it is found at reefs and lagoons. It is named for a nose-like growth on its head. Bignose unicornfish has highly attractive coloration with the ability to show or hide its blue spots and markings. This trait makes it a popular aquarium specimen despite its relatively large size.
