ornate cowfish

hey guys. have you ever heard of this cowfish. They look really cool. After exstensive research i have come to the conlcusion that i think i want one! tHIS cowfish lives down by australia. I thnk he will need a cooler. Ive never had one before so do you people know nice chillers? reasonably price too?

thanks PF

They stay small around 6 inches, and only need a 55 gallonish tank.
Try craigslist or a local reef club for a chiller

Okay thanks. Yeah i looked on live aqauria and they were super expensive!

lol, i've seen them for much more.
Chillers are just absurdly expensive.

Chillers are expensive. There are make-shift ways to go about making some but I really think the best thing is to just have a regular one. Depending on the climate where you live you may not need one if the temperature doesn't fluctuate much. Nano chillers are cheaper and easier to have but they will not cool a large tank (duh) and I really know nothing about cowfish but I can assume that none are acceptable for the nano environment.

yeah. the ornate cowfish requires at least a 55 gallon tank. I dont think thats nano. lol. You guys have any good brands? what kind do you have for your fugus chin?

I actually do not have a chiller. It stays about 65 in my house in the summertime and the fugu are in a room where the sunlight cannot come in and affect the temperature. In the winter a heater keeps the temp just right and it also regulates it at about 67 degrees.
I am lucky that where I live we have a pretty steady climate.

haha thats great. Too bad that my room gets the setting sun

Look for a used one though a reef club and it will most likely be much cheaper than a full priced one.

okay thanks.
