The Fiji Bicolor Foxface is a rabbitfish with a dark front half and a yellow rear section. Give it open swimming space, sheltered rockwork and regular access to marine algae.

François Neo’s advice

I choose this fish for its grazing behavior and plan for its adult size. Offer a varied diet with marine algae and watch its behavior around corals. Individuals may nip at polyps, including some soft corals and LPS. Plan introductions carefully if you already keep a rabbitfish.

Handling: This species has venomous spines. Avoid direct contact when transferring the fish or working in the aquarium.

S, M and L refer to purchase size. Ask us for the current measurements and lot origin. The photo represents the species.
