Long horn cowfish/ Cubicous boxfish keepers.

[evolutionZ]

Hey guys, i know they are poisonous and will wipe out the tank if they die and release posion..

But how possible is this? im so tempted to keep either one of them. but the posion thingy is currently keeping me at bay. Do they like high flow? do they eat pellets or frozen brine/mysis? are they reef safe?

Any one keeping them? my tank's a 65g.. 48x24x14"..

Thanks!

Both of these fish can grow to 40cm, so I think it's obvious that you can't keep any of them in a 65g.

I don't have any first hand experience with them, but my friend had a cubicus and it was nasty and agressive. And I will never forget the baby cubicus I once saw at the lfs, it was harrassing every other fish in the tank, non stop, and it was eating their eyes. I still feel bad when I think about it.
