Your experience with Foxface

[fishoholic]

Hi, Steve and I have a foxface you can always come visit hint hint If he gets spooked he loses his colour and hides, and it did take him awhile to settle in, but now he thinks he's a tang and he swims around with them (a lavender, regal, salfin and yellow tang) all the time front and centre. Our's is a big pig he eats nori, mysis and pellets. He is a very peaceful fish other aggressive tanks mates (a powder brown tang and a nigger trigger) we had in the past had to go because they tormented him. He's very hardy our only survivor out of all of our original sw fish. Steve got stung by him once and he said that his hand hurt like an SOB for about 10 sec. then went numb for about 30 sec. then was fine. I was there when it happened and it wasn't too bad. We have him in our reef tank and the only coral we can't have with him are zoos, he likes to eat them, but other corals he leaves alone. The only con is if you want aggressive fish or zoos you might have to rethink getting a foxface, otherwise go for it! Our foxface was the first big sw fish we got and we love having him in our tank. Hope this helps PS our friend has one too and his leaves his zoos alone, however ours used to leave zoos alone too and now he likes to snack on them! -Laurie
