Boston bean cowfish boxfish

what do we know about these fish...from what I'm finding they grow to about 6" difficult care level...what about crabs and snails

Would this be a fish I could consider? My LFS has one and he's pretty darn cute lol...I love cowfish boxfish but almost all grow to well over a foot this is supposedly the smallest of the species...

Anyways if anyone could fill me in ASAP as I will be leaving the town where this fish is in about an hour thanks guys!

For those that don't know I have a 93 gal cube with all peaceful fish and not really a reef tank at all

My concern would be the toxin they have that can be an issue if they are stressed or die. I don't think they handle a lot of current either but not sure about that.

Thanks I suppose I'll probably pass for now...not a good idea to impulse buy fish lol...one day maybe because I just love those little jetsons fish lol
