Longhorn cowfish

[PjFish]

Not many but seems more people say that if it dies it's unlikely to release toxins.

Most useful videos about them are over 15 years ago. The more recent ones feature idiots with 1 inch ones in tiny tanks lol. I don't even bother looking at those.

Seems agressive fish are the main threat something bullying them. I will likely give it a shoot being this would by fair be my biggest fish so far, I don't see any potential for bullying at present. If I add more fish later this guy will already be somewhat established not being the new guy.

I will get this fish unless someone says some legitimate reason I shouldn't lol. O saw it in person a 2 months ago very cool and stunning fish.

Thanks just wondering since everyone says its possible but with so many of these cowfish out there hardly any actual reports of chemical warfare in tanks..
Awesome plenty of room in ur tank for a while to cruz!

I've never kept one, but I have imported and sold quite a few. If one died in a cube with other fish, we'd typically loose those other fish. Never had a system wide wipe out though, with them.

How big was the cubes?

And do u think larger water volume would help dilout any toxins?

Maybe running carbon reactor could also help?

cubes as in holding tanks in a wholesale system. The long horns got put 4' tanks divided in 2, or 3. You'd be fine in your tank.
