Perhaps one of the more comical fish to keep in an aquarium, this Cowfish will require a mature aquarium with excellent water quality. They are very intolerant of high nitrates or any trace of copper. They should be offered meaty foods, Krill, Mysis and Clam, and also small live feeder fish. Given the slow maneuverability of the Cowfish, care should be taken to avoid other fast moving
