Not sure about the shrimp its a bit hard to tell. The box fish is a cubicus box fish. You should check out live aquaria for more info on this guy. They are considered expert only, grow over a foot long and if stressed will release a poison that will wipe out everything your tank. Hope he has plenty of room to move! Good luck, they are by far the most awesome fish out there :)
 
well iv had him for a month and hes happy as loves to come say hello when im doing my hand feeding
 
Looks l like a cubicus, but the face tells me otherwise, I'd look up spotted sharpnosed boxfish or tilefish, or toby...
 
And puffers don't often puff at all- it takes a lot of aggravation- a lot of people hand feed and eventually can handle their boxfish/ puffer.
 
yeah its a cubicus box fish for sure. Thanks for the help and tips
