Golden-Lined Spinefoot (Masked spine foot)

They can eat large amounts of algae (relative to their size) from rocks, like green hair algae and filamentous algae. As it doesn’t eat every algae type, in case of a specific algae plague, find out more precise information.

This species can live as a pair (male and female).

An excellent grazing fish for the larger marine aquarium. All Rabbitfish/Foxfaces require tanks at least 500 litres, even juveniles, as they do grow very quickly if cared for well. The dorsal spines are venomous, if mishandled the spines can inflict a sting. The venom isn’t generally very dangerous, but, can be painful. We recommend only housing 1 Rabbitfish/Foxface per aquarium. Feed primarily on seaweed or appropriate flake food, they will also eat pellets and frozen foods, but, for the best results we recommend feeding mostly seaweed or the flake foods. A very colourful fish, that can also rapidly change colour. Foxfaces and Rabbitfish are quite intelligent and quickly recognize their owners. Highly recommended.
