I assume you are talking about the onespot fox face, since thats the one most commonly seen. They are a hardy fish, that will graze on undesirable and desirable algea in the tank. They can be agressive to similar fish (i.e. yellow tangs, other rabbit fishes). They should be fed what is fed to tangs, Spirulina, sea weed selects, and frozen preperations. They might nip at some corals. These fishes have venomous dorsal spines, so watch out when cleaning the tank. Bo

I have a Foxface with a yellow tang in my FOWLR and they get along fine, hopefully the foxface is already in there and you plan on adding the tang last, if not, you might be in for an adjustment process. After this is over, they should be OK (you never can tell, though, all do not display the same behavioral characteristics)oh, one cool thing about the foxface, he will turn from his bright yellow color to black,white and brown and stick himself to your LR or deco. and freeze when aggrivated or frightened, so if you get one, do not be concerned..It is actually pretty cool..oh, and they have venomous spines so try not to handle them...good luck!
