Tell me about this fish. I have a 75 gallon FOWLR. Would it work?
 
What are some of the other tank mates? It doesn’t really matter with regards to filefish from my experience as nothing really bothers them.
 
Love them, can be somewhat shy and difficult to feed initially. Intial feeding may need to be live; balckworms, brine shrimp, even ghost shrimp. I would recommend planning to treat for internal parasites, if you have heard they can difficult, this is why. Great additon to a 75g, rarely if ever bothers anyone, but may nibble on your cuc; unless you have a real bully, most just leave them alone to do their thing.
 
Thanks!
