I have a 5-6 inch fox, had him for a few years now.

About a year ago I went on a trip for 4 days, left the tank under the care of my friend. My fish are used to getting fed 2-3 times per day. My friend was only feeding them once a day. Apparently this wasn't enough for the fox face because when I came back here had eaten 3 trachys and one donut coral. Pretty expensive snacks. Before this he was never an issue, but I know it was him because my friend said the spike yellow one kept biting them and taking flesh off.

Apart from that he's super good now but I don't keep any meaty corals anymore just o be safe. His color got super nice tho from eating them 😂

One-spot FF = best algae eater ever! The only reason I don't have mine anymore is because of size. I knew he/she would be too big at some point for my footprint, but it was the best 2 1/2 years of algae cleaning ever. Valonia, gone!
