Box fish

[Dis 1]

i was thinking about adding any type of box fish to my reef tank, anybody had any experience with them?

Boxfish are not reef safe. I'm not certain whether or not they will eat coral, but I do know they will eat crustaceans

I had Lactoria cornuta for a while. Most fascinating fish that I have ever had.
It was only 1,5" in length, but such fun to watch. I have a 12" Sohal and other big fishes, but the cow fish was fine with them.
Sadly I lost my Muu-Muu quite soon after it arrived. It got stuck on a Seriatopora hystrix with it's horns and had died. It didn't touch any corals, and didn't poison the tank after it's death. But as I said, it was really small...
He ate EVERYTHING right from the beginning: mysis, brine, flakes, pellets...

I'm getting a new fish soon, but this time I'm getting a bigger one...

thay wont touch your coral -but they do love crabs- they are pretty interesting to watch -when they hunt they have a tendency to blow at the sand hopefully exposing a treat-they are very cool pets

How big is your tank and what else is in it?
