General information regarding the Yellow Blotch Rabbitfish
The Yellow Blotch Rabbitfish originates from the reefs of the Western Pacific. It’s an animal that’s growing in popularity among reef-keepers due to its beauty and algae-eating activities. Its body is brown and is covered with beautiful orange spots and camouflage patterns with a distinctive posterior false eye to confuse predators. Due to its spines that are venomous (which it may raise in the event of being disturbed) it is important to take care when handling to avoid the risk of getting infected. It needs a large tank with plenty of swimming space. It is a tranquil species unless it is housed in a group with other Rabbitfish. This Yellow Blotch Rabbitfish may be kept with fish that are more aggressive and may be placed in pairs. Rabbitfish are usually reef-safe provided they are fed well. If they are not, it’s possible they will nibble at and eat certain species of LPS as well as soft corals.
