There once was a Guttatus Tang,
With colors that really did clang,
Its mustard hue,
Made it stand out anew,
A true beauty that made hearts pang.

With a sharp spike on the tail,
This fish was sure not to fail,
To defend its turf,
With that pointy surf,
A predator’s worst nightmare tale.

This Tang had a calm elegance,
It swam with grace,
In every place,
A true wonder of nature’s brilliance.
