Hi! I would like to know your opinions on longhorn cowfish. I can't seem to find a lot of information about them online... I have a few questions about them:

How big do they actually get? I've read they can grow up to 16 inches in lenght, but do they really?

How fast do they grow?

What do they eat?

Thanks!! :)

I've seen these guys at my local aquarium around 12 inches, and I've seen them eat brine shrimp and mysis. I think there horns get alot shorter as they get older but still a cool fish! Good luck with it!
