This is no laughing matter and it is not funny. It may be cheap to you but it is still an innocent life.

Did I say it's funny?

What do you understand by accidentally? don't try to act smart.

There is nothing wrong with my manners. I did nothing wrong. This is not your forum and everyone is entitled to their own opinions. The last time I checked, my reply did not break the forum rules so please don't kick up a big fuss like you own the place. You started the thread but that by no means make you the boss.

I've made my point and that's all that matters. Bye.

i tink vege beter ..... if u nid help can visit purmei... their foxface is as fat as their tangs ...

[m203]

juz give it a dry seaweed,mysis shrimp or pellet also....

[cdckjn]

I feed them pellets, once a while with brine/mysis shrimps. Once a while, some of the macro algae/seaweed that i got from changi beach which is growing in my sump. The foxface seems to love that a lot.

[flying carpet]

Foxface will eat pellets, brine shrimp etc. Basically it is an eating machine just like tangs.

But do beware this fish has a venomous spine do pratice caution when handling this species. It grows fast also.

[boxfish]

ya it is not a true blue vegeterian

basically it will try whatever thrown into the tank

and it can finish a rock of red bamboo... wah untill tummy big big

now I have no worry for this fish at all cos it has a common "problem" as the rest ... too fat!

oh I know it can grow quite big ... now I only hope my small tank can limit it's growth like my boxfish ... else that will be a real problem
