Re: Ornate Boxfish
The only problem with them is that they are really expensive since they have to be shipped all the way from australia.

Nope. I am no beginner . Besides. Its one of the few available temperate species of ostraciid and happens to be the most common out of them.

Alright... feed small cut up frozen foods, some occasional pellet and vegies and the cowfish will be fine!

Re: Ornate Boxfish
I was thinking of live amphipods? As well as the other stuff you mentioned.
