I’ve had this rabbitfish for six months now. It’s active and peaceful, and it doesn’t bother the other fish. The tank is 120 gallons and I’ve kept it with hard corals. I do have to monitor it closely around soft corals, but overall it’s a good addition to the tank.

The fish looks beautiful with its blue spots. It’s not aggressive and swims well in the tank. I noticed it occasionally brushes against a soft coral, so I’ve moved it slightly away. Water parameters are stable and it seems healthy.

This fish has become a favorite in our tank. It’s calm, curious, and doesn’t eat the corals. We started with a 100-gallon tank and it’s grown steadily. The care level is a bit higher than expected, but the results are worth it.
