Default FS - One Spot Foxface 4 to 4-1/2" $30 to good home Burnaby

Smudge is for sale
$30 if you have a good home

This fox is a great fish, but isn't fitting into our idea of a "smaller fish" kinda tank

No issues with our Clown, Hector's goby, Starry blenny, or PJ and Bangaii cardinals
Doesn't ever pick on anything - including Hermits, Softies, LPS and SPS

Very healthy, nice and fat, and eats everything;
- soft spirulina pellets
- NLS pellets
- mysis
- brine
- nori by the boat load, either by hand or on a clip
- algae from rocks and equipment
- even ate freeze-dried plankton yesterday
I swear it would eat a dirty sock

It grazes all day long and would be a great addition to a tank that needs some algae control

Would be best if picked up later at night so it can be scooped out when it's dark outside

Line through pic is from magnifying glass



Red spot on fin is floating nori



In our 75g

Be very careful when catching it cause its dorsal fins are sharp and contain a toxin, I believe, that would be very painful.

Thanks for the caution Anthony ...
And it's not just the dorsal fins you have to watch out for
They are all "pokee"
Plus, you don't want to have a nice fish like this stuck in a net

I've asked the buyer to come by when it's dark-ish outside
Once the buyer is happy with the fish, I will turn off the tank lights and we will wait for the Fox to settle in for the night, then we will scoop him from his "slumbering" spot
I feel this is the best time to "scoop" him with minimal stress on both him and us, and will give the new owner an opportunity to take him home in a dark bucket for easier acclimation

I like the eyes of this fish. They look so innocent
