All are reef safe.
Pretty- I like mine because he changes color all the time and usually has yellow spots. But I've never really cared for the foxface rabbits... I don't know why. Brad and Mark both have awesome looking rabbits you should check out.

I have a foxface. I like the fish but ever since I added him and the copperband I have had problems with disapering zoos. I have heard of at least one other person having problems with this fish.

Jeff, I have had my rabbitfish in my tank for almost two years now. Never bothers anything, but the tangs pick on him every now and then and he loves nori sheets,, Eats it just like a rabbit.

Siganus doliatus, the Blue-lined Rabbitfish.
I love the one I care for. 
It eats Bryopsis too.
The Tang/Rabbitfish book that I have says that adults are almost always found in pairs. That explains why the Yellow Tang and Rabbitfish always hang together.
Adams is either a S. guttatus, Gold-saddle Rabbitfish or a Spotted Rabbitfish, S. punctatus.
