notes
   A very attractive and hardy fish, the Onespot Foxface Rabbitfish is a nice addition to most aggressive tanks. It will graze on both nuisance and desirable algae. Typically not aggressive towards any fish except its own kind.   
overview
  
The Onespot Foxface Rabbitfish (Siganus unimaculatus) belongs to the family named Siganidae. Typically reaching a max size of about 8.0 inches in length, the Onespot Foxface 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 unimaculatus should not be housed in a tank less than 75 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.
