Foxface

Onespot Foxface Rabbitfish

This is my Foxface Rabbitfish (Siganus unimaculatus) that I got when it was quite small, but now is about 4"+. A great fish that is never a problem and is very active. He was shy at first but now will willingly eat veggie sheets right out of my hand. His color changes quite a bit depending on his mood and also at night.

Maximum length: 8" (20 cm)

Range: Western Pacific

My recommended minimum tank sixe: 70 gal.

Feeding: Likes mostly vegatable matter like marine algae, blue/green algae spirulina, zucchini, broccoli, leaf lettuce, and nori. Will also eat mysis and brine shrimp.

Reef compatibility: May nip at some corals and even eat some of the polyed soft corals.

Aquarium care: Quite a hardy species that can be added to moderately new aquariums. It's spines are venomous and can cause pain and swelling if you get stuck.

Same fish but in sleeping colors.

UPDATE

This guy has been a pleasure and is never a problem. Helps control the algae and eats like a champ. Now a little over 5".
