I had one for around 6 months before I came home one day to some of my zoa colonies wiped out. Traded him to a local guy who has a tank with no zoas. It was an awesome fish tho. Always peaceful and out in the open. It swam around slowly and got a long well with my sailfin tang. I loved the colors of it. I don't think it was from lack of feeding as I feed the tank daily and always fed algae sheets on a clip also.
 
wow thanks for the feed back. I finally did do some reading, and yes they will pick. So its a no. Im just starting to get on my zoa game too. thanks again
 
Ime less than half wind up eating soft corals... it's just one of those risks that you may or may not want to take
I agree. There are certain fish that you will want that will be on the 50/50 bubble. You just have to decide if it's worth the risk and be will to pull the fish out if it doesn't.

Also, they get really big pretty quick. People are always talking about how a certain fish will get 12" or whatever but this one actually will in my experience. I got this fish when I had a 90g and accelerated my 180g upgrade plans because of it... and then I still had to re-home the fish after less than a year in the 180. I am a fan of rabbit fish but this fish's size coupled with its spastic skittish temperament makes it not a good fit for tanks smaller than several hundred gallons IMO.
