Brown tang colouring page
A brown tang outline for children aged 3 to 8, with short facts to read together. Colour it in the Live Aquarium app and it turns into a swimming 3D creature.
This sheet is printed from the app: open "From paper" and tap "Printable coloring pages (for grown-ups)". Printing is free. Ten sheets can be printed from this site.
Brown tang facts for kids
- Where it lives
- On coral reefs of the Indian and Pacific Oceans.
- How big it is
- Like a grown-up's hand: about 20 centimetres.
- What it eats
- Algae it scrapes off the rocks.
- And also
- It is the reef's gardener: it eats algae so the corals get enough light.
What colours to use
The brown tang is chocolate brown with a lighter tail and thin lines along the body. Browns, olives and a little gold look calm and real.
In the aquarium any colours work: the creature will swim exactly as your child coloured it.
Bring it to life
In the Live Aquarium app the same outline can be coloured on the screen with brushes, fills and stamps, and then it swims in a 3D aquarium, can be fed, petted and named. A printed and coloured sheet can be photographed in the app (with Plus).
