Scientific Name Siganus (Lo) vulpinus Reef Compatible With Caution Care Level Beginner Disposition Peaceful Min. Tank Size 60 gallons Mature Size 10 inches Diet Herbivore Range Indo-Pacific Description The Foxface Rabbitfishes ability to consume hair algae makes it an excellent choice for peaceful community aquariums. This fish isn’t only a pretty face, it serves a definite function as it will gladly consume hair algae, valonia, and red turf algae. Rabbitfish are relatively peaceful and will not likely harass other peaceful tankmates. As juveniles, Rabbitfish will frequently school but become more aggressive as adults as they establish their territory. You should be cautious when adding this animal to a reef aquarium as it is noted it may occasionally nip at large polyp stony corals as well as soft corals. Diet Feed a varied diet consisting of large chunks of meaty foods. These foods include krill, raw table shrimp, squid, clam and mussel. It is also a good idea to occasionally supplement with some type of herbivore diet.
