Also, they're very easy to train to eat out of your hand. However, they can and will draw blood if they mistake your fingers for something delicious, like mine just did a few minutes ago when I was feeding it krill. Their lips are outrageously soft, and then they bite down. Ouch.

I remember reading your thread about him in your overflow. That's what kind of inspired me to order the fish in, cause I saw your FTS and thought to myself "wow, a cowfish long term in an sps tank- brilliant!" Thanks for the inspiration!
