Bare bones must know: Live-rock fish-only system, or reef aquarium with care. Wear gloves when handling, their venomous spines can inflict painful injuries.
Aquarium set-up: These guys need room to roam and a rock-filled buffet — plenty of space to cruise and live rock loaded with tasty microalgae snacks! Live rock hideaways also help them find solace amidst their aquatic adventures. Maintain an aquatic utopia by nailing the basics: rock-solid water quality with top-notch filtration and routine partial water changes.
Feeding: Rabbitfish will devour algae strips with gusto, crunch on seaweed pellets for a taste of the sea, enjoy high-quality marine flakes and savour live foods like krill for a protein boost. It also indulges in fresh vegetables!
AQT note: All our fish feast on a diet of seaweed, marine pellets, flakes and frozen treats under our care. Keep the feast going in your tank!
