One Spot Foxface in a Reef ?
 
Do you have one ?
Reading the web is different than personal experiences and I'd like some input from owners
Our tank is becoming a mix of softies, LPS and SPS
I don't plan on overfeeding the tank, so I suspect I'll have a coral eater on my hands, but ...

What's your's like ?

Have had a Magnificient Foxface a few years now and never had an issue with him at all. Only thing i've seen him eat as in corals is that clear kind of slime that SPS lets off when disturbed like when I take the coral out of the water for some reason.

I have a foxface and a magnificent in my reef and the wife has a one spot foxface in hers. None has ever caused any problems, just watch your hands around them when you clean the tank.

I had one in my reef for a long time. He was a odd one tho... He ate my nuclear greens and thats it. Musta thought they were mint flavored

My foxface loved zoas, the more colourful the better.....he hated the brown palys though :lol:

I had a big one and all it ate was hair algae and pellets

Mine eats mysis, brine shrimp, nori etc. However it doesn't touch any corals. My tank is sps, no lps, no softies.

Ditto at least with the first foxface I owned, ate every zoa but brown pally's....funny how that works. The one I have now so far hasn't touched any coral.
