One spot foxface rabbitfish.
One of the best fish I have kept.
It has always proven to be hardy, coping with introduction well and even through a disease outbrake.
Somewhat shy when first introduced and even now when there are sudden moves he will dash behind the rocks.
A very big fan and greedy eater of algea sheets are frozen veggie diet, I like to feed him this becasue it keeps him in his lovely yellow colour.
When stressed, they can change colour rappidly to a dark brown mottled colour and patter, they also do this at night.
Does not harras other fish species, even smaller fish like my sixline wrasse, though may be quarlesome with own species.
A great fish for the begginer and advaced aquarist, growing to a decent size, mine is curently about 6.5 inches long! Just watch out when netting and handeling. This fish has venomous spines which can give a nasty sting (though it does not make a point of stinging its keeper when hands are in the tank so dont worry) and the spines are easily caught in nets and can pierce fish bags.
A great character. When I had my velvet wrasse, it would follow the wrasse around the tank no end, a very funny and pleasing relationship, but maybe not for the wrasse
On the whole, a great addition and are even reef safe. Great for eating undesirable algea, but some reports say they might nip corals.
