NOTES:This is the most wanted boxfish in the trade due to its remarkable color and personality.This is a hard fish to come by.We may have it listed,But is only readily available certain times of the year(call for availability).Boxfish in generall are hard to care for.The boxfish no matter what kind usually have a hard time dealing with acclimation.They are also very finicky eaters,so you may not be able to get them to eat initially.When they die,they release a poison,if not removed from the aquarium can pollute the aquarium and cause a big problem.This usually depends on the size of the fish and the aquarium size
