Hey anyone got any feeding guidlines for rabbitfish? I just got a foxface and gold spotted rabbitfish. So far they eat spirulina flakes, and regular flakes.
 
Yes. That's fine. They Dan also eat mysis, brine shrimp , flakes pellets Would feed more veggie based foods but some meat is ok

Do you have any rabbitfish? If so what are you feeding it?
 
Yes I do. I feed all my fish mysis everyday. Nori every day , spir flakes every other day and pellets every other day

I have 2 rabbitfish and 5 tangs in the tank
 
Will rabbitfish jump out of the aquarium?
 
I haven't had a tang or rabbit fish jump out on my yet. Have some tanks covers others not covered I have my main tank mostly covered fir my clowns and wrasses

Thats great. I want t get either a net lid or glass. I feel a net would be netter though. If a fish jumps it wouldnt hurt as much as a net than glass. Yes ive noticed they seem to be cave dweller when scared, rather than jumpers. However if it was a jawfish or anthias it might be a problem.
 
I have a one-spot fox face I've had since he was a baby - literally about 1/2" - and he eats basically anything I throw in the tank. I'll leave a sheet or seaweed (both green and purple) out for him and the tangs daily as well as feed at least once a day with LRS (Reef Frenzy and/or Fish Frenzy) plus a few pellets here and there if I'm home. The only food he was a little apprehensive about initially was the pellets but after he realized what they were, he hunts them down like a heat-seeking missile now when they hit the water :cool:
 
Orange spot in mine, love that he changes colors. Eats nori and all the frozen food i put in there.

I cant wait for mine to get huge. Hes pretty shy compared to the foxface though. Is yours shy?
