yeah, my foxface is very shy at times and my yellow tang follows him everywhere. I think that the tang is a fatal attraction

 

A foxface is different then a rabbit fish. But they are 1st cousins to the tangs and surgeon fish. All are in the same family

 

Foxface, those are some great fish, lots of personality. They can be shy, but once they get used to their surroundings they are full of life. Very fun fish.

 

Well he's starting to move about more

HI,
he's nibbling on food when I feed and not hiding so much, he also seems to be pretty good buds with the small tang, he's the only fish the marron clowns tolerate, go figure.
he will actualy go into their corner and they ignore him.
