No, not at all. To me, their personality is quite docile and timid really. I imagine the only risk would be if I had to catch them, I guess I'll have to cross that bridge eventually. But no, no cause for concern otherwise so far.

I'd second the dottyback suggestion. Mine took a while to come out, but now that he has, he is always out and about. You could also pick up a tank raised dottyback, that are supposed to be much hardier, like I did. They have great little personalities! A dottyback won't add to your bioload, like my foxface does. Also, my regal tang and foxface don't get along real well. The other issue with foxfaces is sometimes they can start to eat corals.
