Puffer

Could I get some kind of puffer with my tank eventually or is it too small? And why do they puff up?

Re: Puffer

Your tanks to small for a puffer.plus they aint reef safe.
They puff for defense,or when pissed off.

Re: Puffer

i have a porcupine puffer in my 75 with softies and SPS still yet to kill anything thats not given to him as food

but eighter way your tank is way to small for a puffer

if you get a bigger tank and decide to get one its up to you , just make surew you feed him enough so he wont mess with your cleaner crew and corals

hes in their with cleaner shrim and plenty of snails

i feed him unpeeled shrim for the grocery store so he can peel it and "grind: his tooth on it
