Asylumdown's 275 Tank build

[asylumdown]

This guy is doing great, I think it's because there's so many places in my tank where there's interference so as the day progresses there are relatively calm areas. He doesn't even seem to mind the high flow spots now, as he's doing a much better job of positioning himself in them so that he controls his position instead of just getting blasted. It took him a couple of days to figure out that the sand bed and close to the rocks were calmer than right in front of the powerbeads, but he's almost (not quite) at the point where you can't tell there's current in the tank when you look at him like all the other fish.

How big were the boxfish you tried? this guy is bigger than most I've seen in stores/in people's build threads before so that might be helping. I'm really hoping for long term success with him. I never in a million years thought I could have one of these guys, then when I saw two of them at Wai's and my roommate went "Whoa! COOL!" I immediately turned to google to show him why I couldn't have one. Then Google actually suggested I might be able to have one. Now he's my favourite thing in my tank.

Honestly even if he eats a little bit of coral I might not get rid of him. I have a lot of coral, and he's cooler than most of my coral.

Sounds like someone is attached :-). I had a fish like that once (Queen Angelfish).. Tough call between the fish and the corals.

Both boxfishes that i previously had were pretty small. Probably an inch?
