Marie, what's your thoughts on the foxface, good herbivore, reefsafe? Have seen that they could take a liking to clam and fleshy corals. Also I have concerns on the spines, are they aggressive if you put your hand in the tank?

Want another larger fish for the tank and really want a Yellow Tang but looking like I would just be a little cruel putting one in with my Purple. A foxface is in the running though.

He's a fantastic herbivore but I can't really comment on the reefsafe part because I have an angel, who is definitely not reefsafe, in the same tank. He could be picking on corals and the angel gets blamed .

He's not aggressive towards me at all and usually hides when my hands are in the tank, I do have to be a bit watchful when putting nori in though

Hey Mark, I'll have a foxface up for grabs when I move tanks in a couple of weeks. BTW I have never saw him nip at anything other then algae on the glass or rocks, and I have lots of zoos and clams.

Sorry for jacking your thread Marie. BTW I am jealous of your achilles, such a nice fish.
