yeah, my foxface is very shy at times and my yellow tang follows him everywhere. I think that the tang is a fatal attraction  _________ 9YR OLD 90G 30G w/d Mag18 150G skimmer 692w MH,yel&kole tang,foxface,midas&convict blenny,B&G chromies,Blk/yel fin chromie blackcap,nemo,neon goby,6line; Blastomussa Merleti,Acan ,BUBBLE,Torch,LTA, Goniopora(2), Acropora(2),Brain, Moon, assort zoas, yel& G star polyps, R&G open brain, P&B ricordia, montiporas, cup&candy corals, enias,B/G mush,flower ane(2), cherry red mussa, dusters,cleaning crew  | |

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 _________ Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible (Doug Larson) | |

| 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.
