How did I do on my overview of the FoxFace rabbit fish?

Who here has had foxface eat corals? Also I’m even more curious who has had a foxface for more than a year and it hasn’t eaten any coral (what’s your secret?).

Nice video!

Bumping this thread for some incite on Foxface's eating coral.

My adult Regal Angel will eat zoas and any brain, except Lobo's

Other than that she has been a model citizen.

I've had a foxface in a mixed reef and now a different foxface in an sps dominant tank. Never had an issue with one bothering anything. I feed nori most days and have an auto feeder drop pellets twice a day. I also feed frozen every night.

My foxface was with me for over 5 years. He died of old age. During his time, he was in sps and mixed reefs. I had clams too. He never seemed to bother anything. I had a copperband that had to go for picking lps, but I guess it could have secretly been the foxface. Although, helped when copperband left.
He loved bubble algae the most. Picked all the time. Ate anything I fed usually. No issues. He was a foxface lo (no spot).

My previous foxface was 11 years old before a merten decided to push a guard of a powerhead and sent tentacle pieces around the tank taking out most of the fish. Never touched a single polyp in all that time. Was very well fed and grazed on the rocks all day. My new one is about 1.5” and so far so good. Nori stays in the tank 24/7 and they are fed 3-4 times a day a mix of diy fresh food and lrs.

I have been stung by a rabbitfish, not my foxface. My foxy I could pick up by hand. It was great. The rabbitfish, not so much. And yes, it hurt!

I introduced a one spot last night, within 15 minutes of it being in the tank, it helped itself to a clove polyp frag, I added seaweed in the tank on a clip, and he wasn’t interested! Needliess to say it went back to the store this morning

I have had this Foxface (named Rabbit) since 2010ish. I have had no problems with him bothering any coral. I feed a whole sheet a day along with some frozen.
