Omnipedia entry

Ostracion cubicus

Coral Zone

The Yellow Boxfish has a perfectly boxy body covered in a thick layer of hard scales, deterring many predators from attempting a bite.

However, this heavy "armor" also leaves it powerless against even the gentlest of currents, making it clumsily "shuffle" around through the water.
