They are like regals, "Reef Compatible: With Caution", and from what I have read up on ppl seem to have better luck with the one spot foxface and Magnificent Foxface but that's why I wanted to see if anyone here had one can give some insight

i've had a 1 spot foxface in my frag tank for like 10 months, never ate anything that I didn't want it to eat. it's in my 180 now..

What's your fish list in your 180?

Trying to figure out if I can add more or if I'm pushing my luck lol

Anyone else have either of these two fish?

I have a onespot fox face in my 300g. One I initially placed in my tank awhile back my bully yellow tang tried to punk him. The foxface would flare out its dorsal spines and after a day or two he wasnt bothered anymore. Never messed with any coral.

I had a green coris, he was a jerk.

I have 5 foxface'. I've had them for maybe 8 months. The school and don't eat or nip at corals. I have mostly softies with a couple sps. Very active and colorful. No problems.

Interested in this one, I've also been wanting green coris, I've heard they'll eat inverts but that doesn't sound too bad to have a sweet green wrasse
