You're going to need to be a lot more specific as to what your setup is.

I'm going to assume you're using gnome. In gnome, right click the epiphany icon on the top and remove it. Then right click the empty bar and add a new icon there from your applications menu. Firefox is under internet.

I'd say that is a good guess by Statix...  There is probably a setup option somewhere in GNOME to tell it what the default browser is.  You might be able to uninstall epiphany if you do not want it.  Try "pacman -Rs epiphany".  The "s" tells pacman to remove any dependancies that will not be needed after epiphany is removed.
