Crochet Pattern for a Yellow Tang

Sparkling Yellow
Did you know that tangs are diurnal and search for food all day long. Because of their low energy content, they are forced to eat constantly. Isn't that cute?
The yellow color of the fins of the Yellow Tang remind of a lemon. The large dorsal and anal fins are also reminiscent of the sails of a sailboat. The fish carries razor sharp spines on the root of the tail. These are also called scalpel. With this, it is possible for the fish to defend itself or to attack. However, the fish rarely attack, only when it is necessary. So we don't have to be afraid of Smily the Yellow Tang, because there is no reason to attack in our amigurumi world. And besides, thanks to cotton yarn, the scalpel of our Smily is cuddly soft and not razor-sharp.
