That puffer was huge!!! But loved the cowfish. They really like that. Very docile they are indeed.

They need a huge tank plus they are not very flexable like puffers. They are very stiff in movement. But an extremely awesome fish.

I just noticed that awesome clown trigger swimming around in the video with the long horn cowfish. I think clown triggers are to most beautiful of all fish. I will keep going on talking about them so I will keep it at that..lol.

I am in love with boxfish, and cowfish are a close second. I keep seeing wee baby boxfish, with a big-arse blue fella only once and a while. I feel like cowfish age is harder to tell. ("Dude's got quite the long awkward tail, going on there..." = not a baby cowfish)

Yeah clown triggers can be very aggressive. Cowfish get bullied and the tank will be done for. Full blown chemical warfare from the cowfish.
