I got her from a great Canreef member, Razz or Ray. He moved from Calgary to High River this last year. Sorry if this was your fish, she is awesome.
I can't say that I have ever seen one prior to mine... Quote:

I guess I must have really started a misnomer here, when I had bought the rabbit fish from a local LFS he had said it was the closest thing to a scribble he had seen, since I was not really overally concerned at the time and even a little less now, I purchased it realizing that it would be a very interesting fish and a great addition to the tank either way. So it may be a scriblle or it may be just another beutiful rabbit, but it was great and a welcome addition to the tank I had.
But for those that are really in the know, I must ask without a photo, and w/o seeing it did the real scribble (Siganus doliatus) finally make it to Calgary on a special order??? |
Yes I agree more important than the name is that it is an exquisite fish. :)
Despite MY best efforts to get S. doliatus in on a special order, no, none ever came in on a special order that I know of. However, did one day a couple months ago (on a tip from another Canreefer) find out that Ocean City had 4 of them. Went in to check, sure enough, there they were. The guys at Ocean City were like "Gee, I don't know what the big deal is. We get this kind of rabbitfish in all the time, at least once a month or so." Guess it depends on who you order from or something. Guess which shop I frequent a LOT more often than I used to nowdays!! :lol: I don't have any pictures closeup of mine yet though as they are too skittish still to stay put when I get the camera out. :( They were doing a lot better when Catherine's fish were boarding at my house but now they are back to camoflage mode the instant a human gets near the tank. |
Siganus stellatus
Turns out she is a Siganus stellatus owner by Landonreefer prior to Razz and myself... what a small world it is. She was only 4" when he had her brought in for him last year. I tried to measure her last night, and she is about 9" long now. Eats like a pig, and hangs with my Naso.
Awesome fish. |
That indeed is a very cool fish... Its like you have a dozen fish to look at in one package, money well spent!!!
