Weird phenomena, I wonder how that helps escapes predators or whatever it is that makes fish scared in the wild. Maybe it makes them invisible to other fish.

Everything is looking ok now. The big Pocci has stopped sliming and its polyps are out again, and the Foxface has calmed down enough and even ate a little. Rabbitfish are pretty weird all right. I have a large Foxface in the 225g, he's about 7" long. In the evening, after lights out I cover the tank with egg crate panels to stop jumpers. The other night something startled him and he hit the egg crate so hard he lifted the whole panel and moved it a couple of inches. This is a 32" x 24" piece of egg crate! I thought for sure he must have given himself brain damage, but the next day he was perfectly fine except for a couple of small scratches on his head. Dumbass!
