Slow and scaly: Known for the horns as well as a scaly coat of armor, cowfish are not known for their swimming speed. No Olympic medals for these fish! Instead of moving their tail (caudal) fin, for propulsion, they use their dorsal (top) and pectoral (side) fins. See the fish in action! Video here.
