Real Glow Longhorn Cowfish, Boxfish skeleton, magnet mounted on Wooden Base

The longhorn cowfish (Lactoria cornuta), also called the horned boxfish.

In the wild this fish glows and look I made a glowing skeleton taxidermy version of it

It’s easy to see why the boxfish got its name. Its body is shaped like a small box! Their boxy shape is due to the shell structure underneath their scales. This strange shape makes them very slow swimmers. In fact, some people describe their movement as hovering rather than swimming. This is a saltwater fish that lives on coral reefs in the Pacific and Indian Oceans as well as the southeastern Atlantic Ocean. Ostracion cubicus is the scientific name for the boxfish. The Latin word Ostracion means shell, referring to the shell or carapace structure of this fish. Cubicus means cube-like. Pufferfish and cowfish are some of its other names.

The whole exoskeleton of the Boxfish grows with the fish. It forms 90% of how it looks when still alive.

This unique piece features a glowing Boxfish skeleton, mounted on a wooden base for an elegant and natural display.

Fullset dimensions: 8.9 x 2 x 5.1 inches / 22.5 x 5 x 13 cm
