I've been thinking about a show fish for my 6 x 2 tank which has been mainly set up for seahorses,Pipefish and other small fishes with a few soft corals.
A little while ago during a conversation with one of the leading lights in our hobby who was down on a visit, he mentioned Hawaiin Boxfish (Ostracion Meleagris). A pair would be ideal and would certainly be very showy.
However,Im slightly put off by the danger of them stressing and poisoning the tank. I've been assured this would be minimal in this kind of setup with nothing to bother them. Besides if they did "ink out" it should be "dissolved" within the 450g system.

Just wondered if anyone could offer any advice,experiences.
