The Coral Rabbitfish (Siganus corallinus) is sometimes called a Blue Spotted Rabbitfish or a Blue Spotted Spinefoot. It belongs to the family named Siganidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 11.2 inches in length, the Coral Rabbitfish is generally passive in nature and hardy in stamina. It's more active during the daytime and less at night, and will hang out across the entire tank. According to FishDB current data, captive breeding success is unreported and there are no external signs of sexual differences. Siganus corallinus should not be housed in a tank less than 100 gallons in size. Tank parameters should be maintained with ph level between 8.1 - 8.3, temperature between 77 - 79 degrees fahrenheit, and a salinity between 1.020 - 1.023. Some of the environmental concerns that you should strive to replicate in your home aquaria to promote succesful acclimation include plenty of hiding places.
