Lactoria Cornuta-Horned Cow fish
Not reef safe as it will eat inverts and may take bits out of corals. Care needs to be taken with tank mates as it will gore them with it's horns. Nets shell fish and small fish in its diet. Does well in a FO or Fowlr tank but you need to be careful its tank mates aren't that aggressive.

Because of their beaks they shouldn't be kept in acrylic tanks, as they can take bits out of the acrylic and leave scratches.
