id love to have the little guy if he was to get that big, looks like im going to have to upgrade. i think hes a long horn, look at my pics in my albums, maybe u can id him for me

Any chance you can get a pic of him? Your pics are a little small and I can't see what he looks like.
Try this:
Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Cowfish Longhorn
I would read up on him, since they have poisonous and can poison the tank if stressed.

sorry, my camera broke, so im using my phone for now. yea thats what he looks like

I just caught this. Is your cowfish in a 20G tank? If so, he can wipe out the whole tank and himself if he gets stressed or dies. He should be in at least a 125G tank. I don't know how I didn't pick up on that...hmmmm.

i know, im not planning to keep him long, hes pretty mellow. im upgrading soon though. =)..but yea, ive been told that.
