One-Spot Foxface – Small – Siganus unimaculatus
The One-Spot Foxface displays a vibrant yellow body contrasted by bold black markings over the eyes and a distinctive black spot near the dorsal base. This small juvenile is active and alert, often hovering near rockwork while grazing on algae, yet shows a peaceful temperament in community tanks. When threatened, it can flare its venomous dorsal spines as a defensive display, making careful handling essential.
It thrives in a mature, stable reef aquarium with plenty of live rock for grazing and moderate flow. Add only after the tank has fully cycled and parameters are stable—typically several months into setup. A minimum tank size of 75 gallons is recommended to allow room for growth and active swimming.
The One-Spot Foxface is primarily herbivorous and does best on algae-based foods and premium diets from San Francisco, Hikari, PE, TDO, and New Life Spectrum. Supplement with Julian Sprung’s Sea Veggies to support digestive health and vibrant coloration.
Approximate product size: 2"–3".
