The Scribbled Rabbitfish has a whitish gray body with intricate yellow and light blue lined patterns throughout. It has bright yellow accents outlining the body and the tail fin. Two shaded bands run down the anterior of the fish near the head. The nose is slanted but does not protrude like its relative the foxface.
The Scribbled Rabbitfish is a peaceful fish and great for controlling hair algae, but may nip at some types of soft coral, and not ideal for reef tanks. The Scribbled Rabbitfish can be housed with all types of fish because more aggressive fish will fear the venomous dorsal spines. In the wild they will swim in pairs and this can be achieved in the home aquarium as well, just be sure same species of rabbitfish are introduced simultaneously in a larger aquarium. Provide plenty of live rock for shelter and grazing.
Rabbitfish eat mostly vegetable matter and some small meaty foods. Try feeding your rabbitfish Ocean Nutrition pellets for a healthy diet.
