New foxface and the powerhead

[LittleBee]

Just introduced my new foxface to the tank and he already found the golden algae spot! Haha I love him already!

I have a foxface vacationing in my tank and he's doing a really great job of picking at the rocks. I am starting to become a bit worried though, because I've seen him pick REALLY close to a few specific corals. I can't tell if he's picking AT the coral, or if he's picking off algae that's growing close to the polyps.

Has anyone else had foxface eat corals?

I had a foxface go after zoanthids. I have limited sps. I gave him back to the LFS. I waited almost a year and then replaced him with another one and have never had a problem with the new one. I have had the new one about 8 months. I think it just varies from fish to fish.

That's why it has taken me so long to finally break down and get one. I was worried about him picking at corals. But for some reason zoanthids don't like my 93g so I don't have any in there. I'm just a bit worried about my todds torch and a couple of my Fav montis. So far he has only been cleaning off the rocks and I also have one of those cone feeders I there with formula two so he doesn't ever get too hungry. I'll be watching him like a hawk regardless.

i love my foxface!! Such a cool fish and to watch it change colors so fast is pretty sweet and amazing!! Mine was real skiddish for a while now he is out all the time and does not get spooked as easy.

Mine has never touched a coral!!

It looked like mine tasted my green monti but then swam away uninterested. This guy seems to be pretty outgoing. He already out and about exploring the whole tank. Doesn't swim away when he sees me. He does spike his Gina up at the other fish quite a bit but I think it's bc they are all wrasses and are always moving all over the place.

Yup mine does that all the time. It's cool to see his spines!!
