The foxface has been a great addition to my 60-gallon reef tank. It’s peaceful and active without causing any issues. I’ve had to watch it closely at first, but it’s now a stable part of the community. Feeding is easy and it shows interest in live foods.
Joe MacLeod –
I bought this fish for my intermediate reef setup. It’s calm and doesn’t bother other inhabitants. I noticed it occasionally eats small crustaceans, so I’ve increased the number of larger invertebrates to balance it out.
Sophie Watson –
After a few weeks, the foxface has settled in well. It’s not aggressive and stays near the lower mid-levels of the tank. I appreciate the clear care instructions provided with the product.
