Scribbled Rabbitfish (Siganus doliatus)
The Scribbled Rabbitfish is a striking marine herbivore, easily recognized by its intricate black-and-white “scribbled” pattern across a silvery body and bright yellow fins. Known for its peaceful temperament and active grazing behavior, it adds both visual interest and functional algae control to reef aquariums. Like other rabbitfish, it possesses venomous dorsal spines, so careful handling is essential.
Size: Typically grows up to 10 inches in length
Country of Origin: Indo-Pacific
Latin Name: Siganus doliatus
Care Level: Moderate – thrives in well-established reef aquariums with ample swimming space and algae to graze
Scribbled Rabbitfish are herbivores that feed primarily on marine algae and seaweed, and they may accept prepared herbivore foods. They are generally reef-safe with caution due to their venomous spines, which can injure other livestock or handlers if disturbed.
