The Fantail Filefish is a stunning and very colorful filefish from Hawaii. Fantail Filefish have a mostly tan body with black spots and a yellow dorsal fin. Fantail Files also have a brilliant orange tail. Fantail Filefish can be aggressive towards other filefish in smaller tanks. To try to get around the aggression issue, try to introduce multiple Fantail Filefish at the same time and into larger tanks. Fantail Filefish will excel in fish only tanks with other peaceful to semi-aggressive fish. If houses with semi-aggressive fish, it's a good an idea to have lots of live rock for your Fantail Filefish to hide in if they feel threatened. Fantail Filefish will also pick at the rock all day for small inverts between feedings.
