Porcupine puffer and close

[Ian Baxter]

Has anyone had issues with a porcupine puffer and their clowns?

I currently have a FOWLR tank with an ocellarus and a domino clown, 2 azure damsels, 2 kaudern cardinals, and a powder blue tang.

I currently have a fake nem for them and they never used it (3 weeks) until now. Once my new lights arrive I’m going to get a real one. Just hope he doesn’t eat the clowns.

How large is the tank?

Bigger tanks help, but depending on your tank size you should be alright

It’s a 120 gal long. The puffer is about 4 inches so his mouth is too small for the moment. Would just hate to lose them.

Puffers are more interested in inverts than fish. It not a guarantee, as nothing in this hobby is, but I am confident it will work out well.
