Awesome fish. Had him for about 6 months now. Great personality. He doesnt nip at any coral but if a snail finds itself upside down, consider it cowfish food.

Damn, this is tempting. Have always wanted one, but I worry about them nuking at tank. I have read mixed reviews on the likelihood of this happening.

I was worried about that at first too. After seeing this guy's personality and calm demeanor I'm not worried at all about him stressing out and killing everyone.
 
I love this fish since I saw them years ago and considered setting up a tank based on it. The full face view is awesome! Will be following your updates on this guy.
 
Other than the massive future size, the release of toxins not only when they are stressed but also when they die nuking the tank is not a concern? Specifically since any fish might die suddenly?

Similar to puffers, looks like a super cute fish but way too much risk and future problems for my appetite, and I understand why I am not seeing them often in tanks.
 
If my 210 was running I'd give him a shot. I seen him in person a very cool looking fish. I got bulkheads in the otherday to seal the bottom holes of the tank and the ones for the return holes on the back. So getting a little closer to being ready to try getting it going.
