Default never enough pics.

Hope you enjoy.The last one I seen on live aquaria.com but I thought they were really cool so I thought I would see if anyone has seen these before.

Hey stinky, how are those Cowfish/Boxfish being safely kept together with soft corals? Don't they eat them?

Or do you sometimes luck out and get one that is extremely tame without that kind of behaviour?

The clowns are "snowflakes" a product of selectively breeding mis-bars.
If I remember correctly they are being bred by Tropical Marine Center (TMC) in England.
I can't say I've ever seen them available in Canada though.
Other lines produced in this way are the Picasso/Jigsaw.

The one pictured belonged to Embryoguy of RC (hope he doesn't mind me using his pic)

Theres also whats called a "naked" clown that is all orange with no stripes.

The cowfish does bother some things,like feather duster , tube worms, and starfish.He seems to leave the corals alone.
