Adaptations of a blue tang fish include its bright blue coloration, which helps it blend in with its coral reef habitat and evade predators. Its sharp spines and razor-sharp caudal fin are used for defense against predators. Blue tangs also have a unique ability to produce a slime coating that protects them from parasites and infections. Additionally, their ability to swim quickly and maneuver through tight spaces allows them to escape danger efficiently.
