Like what? Vendor sites? I have been considering adding a One-Spot to my 90, but I think it is a tight squeeze for a 90, and have decided against it. I think a 75 is too small for a Pakistani as well, and being "TheNewGuy" I don't think you will be successful with that fish. That is a fish that should only be attempted by experienced reef keepers, and imo the best results are with tanks much, much larger than yours.

I had a One-Spot in my 90g and it outgrew the tank. It spent most of its time pacing the glass. I moved it to the 225g and it was much happier.

i think every rabbitfish ive ever had has been to big for any of my tanks.....i dont trust alot of sites where they give you the minium gallons....more of a guideline not to be taken to heart....their even hard to get rid of when they grow to big, not a huge demand for foxfaces these days

My one spot foxface must be a dwarf. I've had him for close to 2 years now and he's still no more than 4" long. Also one of the most docile fish I've ever had next to my chicken firefish.

sorry myka, but i was not asking for advice on my current stock. i did my research before purchasing the foxface, and no, it wasnt just vendor sites min recommendations i looked at. Advice taken on the pakistani, it was a potential, something i saw at my LFS and absolutely loved, but not a necessity for me. thanks for the help guys, ive gotten the answers i needed. so before this turns into a bigger flame war, unsubscribed.
