Edward Martin –
The foxface has been a great addition to my 60-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and stays active without causing any issues. I’ve noticed it occasionally eats small crustaceans, so I’ve added more hiding spots. Overall, it’s a good fit for intermediate reef keepers.

I bought this fish for my tank and it has adapted well. It’s not aggressive and looks beautiful in the display. I keep an eye on the invertebrates, and it’s only nibbling on very small ones. The size is within the expected range.

After a few weeks, the foxface has settled in nicely. It’s active during the day and doesn’t stress other fish. I’m happy with the choice, especially since it’s reef-compatible with caution. The mature size is larger than expected, but that’s normal.
