The Yellow Boxfish juvenile form is easily identifiable as having a yellow box shaped body with black spots. As an adult, the yellow will fade.
This is a very difficult fish to keep in an aquarium setting. It should have a minimum of a 450 litre tank. Use caution if placing the Yellow Boxfish in a reef tank as they will often nibble at coral and invertebrate. If stressed, the Yellow Boxfish releases a poisonous substance, called ostracitoxin, from its mucous glands which will kill other fish in the tank very quickly.
When first introduced, the Yellow Boxfish prefers a diet of live brine shrimp or bloodworms. Once acclimated, the diet should include chopped squid, clams, mussels, and herbivore preparations.
