Boxfish are generally peaceful and they definitely require peaceful, slow moving tankmates like themselves, do not house them with aggressive eaters. As mentioned earlier, they are capable of releasing a lethal toxin when they are stressed so “bullies” in the tank need to be removed.
Be cautious when introducing them in a reef tank since they will often nibble at tubeworms.
