rabbit fish

would a rabbit fish be ok in 55 and reef?

According to Drsfostersmith.com, (Take it for what its worth) it needs at least a 100 gallon tank and is reef safe with caution:

maybe it was the foxface not the rabbit?

Dwayne had a rabbitfish of some type in his 125.

I have a foxface in my 92gal and he is doing great, had him for like 3 or 4 years now. Never seen him pick at any corals or anything.

I had one in a 55. He always hid and stayed brown. He is now in a 100 and is always out and normal colored. That was the second one I tried in the 55 with the same results. I don't think they feel very secure in tanks without swimming room.

Rabbitfish tend to get a little bigger than the 'typical' reef tank fish. Mine were 7"+ in length. A very good fish, when provided the correct tank size. I am thinking of adding one to my new setup.
