Rabbitfish
:''The chimaeras, cartilaginous fishes of the order Chimaeriformes, are also sometimes called "rabbitfishes".''
Rabbitfishes or spinefoots are perciform fishes in the family Siganidae. The 28 species are in a single genus, ''Siganus''. In some now obsolete classifications, the species having prominent face stripes—colloquially called foxfaces–are in the genus ''Lo''. Other species, such as the masked spinefoot (''S. puellus''), show a reduced form of the stripe pattern. Rabbitfishes are native to shallow waters in the Indo-Pacific,〔 but ''S. luridus'' and ''S. rivulatus'' have become established in the eastern Mediterranean via Lessepsian migration.〔Debelius, H. (1997). ''Mediterranean and Atlantic Fish Guide.'' ISBN 978-3925919541〕 It can be used in the preparation of ''bagoong''.
==Description and ecology==
The largest rabbitfish grows to about , but most species only reach between .〔 All have large, dark eyes and small, somewhat rabbit-like mouths, which gives them their name. Most species have either bright colors or a complex pattern.
Another unusual feature among rabbitfishes is their pelvic fins, which are formed from two spines, with three soft rays between them. The dorsal fin bears 13 spines with 10 rays behind, while the anal fin has seven spines and nine rays behind; the fin spines are equipped with well-developed venom glands.〔Taylor (2000)〕 All rabbitfish are diurnal; some live in schools, while others live more solitary lives among the corals. They are herbivorous, feeding on benthic algae in the wild. They are pelagic spawners. Many are fished for food, and the more colorful species—especially the foxfish—are often kept in aquaria.
In aquaria, they eat a variety of fresh vegetables and algae. Care must be taken during aquarium maintenance and cleaning, as rabbitfishes are often easily frightened and will use their venomous spines in defense. Their venom is not life-threatening to adult humans, but causes severe pain.
