I have a rabbitfish in my reef, I wouldn't put another in due to advice that they are quite aggressive to their own kind but i have no personal experience of this myself. This amazes me actually as mine is very friendly to all of it's tank mates. Books also say just one per tank.
 
My magnificent foxface is extremely aggressive not only towards other foxfaces, but also towards any fish that resembles a foxface. My foxy went as far as killing a copper-band butterfly.
 
Theyre kind of like tangs, and your not supposed to have tangs in the same tank that resemble eachother, so unless your are adding them at the same time with caution, I would say no.
 
Thanks for the advice. I plan to keep my one spot foxface for now and if I decide to switch to a magnificent I will move the one spot to another tank. Thank you again
