Description
The Magnificent Foxface is a visually striking fish known for its vibrant colors and unique appearance. With a white body adorned with a large black spot and beautiful yellow and red fins, it adds a dramatic touch to any marine aquarium. Reaching a maximum size of about 8 inches, it requires a minimum tank size of 75 gallons to thrive. While generally semi-aggressive, the Magnificent Foxface can coexist with other reef inhabitants when housed with care. As a herbivore, it primarily feeds on algae and plant matter, making it beneficial for maintaining algae levels in the aquarium. Although it is reef compatible, caution is advised with small invertebrates, as it may nibble on them. This fish is a delightful addition for aquarists looking to introduce a splash of color and personality to their underwater ecosystem.
