Ive got a monster chaeto farm in my sump.

My old puffer(before he decided to go carpet surfing) would freak out over people he didnt know sometimes and go hide with his tail to his side. He got over it after a few hours. Its also a possibility that there was some aggression between the 2 though as puffers are known lion fin nippers.

I have a harlequin tusk thats really aggressive(he tore up a little foxface i had) and my Huma taunts him until the tusk starts chasing him and when the tusk gives up then the huma will start following him again. Hes like a passive aggresive picasso. Suffice to say my tusk seems to have...

The general rule with Puffers is to not keep 2 similar ones together, including 2 Porcs. I'm really not sure how thats going to work out for you. They are solitary hunters and will likely view another puffer as competition. At their youngest its fine and not uncommon to see like 5 baby Porcs...

Mine sleeps in the PVC I have more my Eel, right below the place my puffer is always chilling. I also only see his tail sticking out while hes doing that.

Eh well an Angel is potentially almost as bad with Lions as Triggers are. Why don't you get like a Foxface or a Maroon Clown.

I'm pretty sure pleasants has had these 2 together for awhile already. Any problems between the 2 should've cropped up by now, but its certainly something to keep an eye on should the tank dynamic change.

I dont think a Lion will attack a fish unless they were small enough to be food. They arent really agressive per se.

My tusk is a jacka$$. I'm fairly sure he took a chunk out of my foxface's tail. Now that I added a Humu he spends way too much time chasing him around, but at least now he seems too occupied with the Humu to bother my less aggressive Fox or Angel. He's real skittish so I'm not sure maybe his...

My tusk is a [hr] . I'm fairly sure he took a chunk out of my foxface's tail. Now that I added a Humu he spends way too much time chasing him around, but at least seems too occupied to bother my less aggressive Fox or Angel.

Yes, I only have 1 fish in QT at a time. Not sure if you misunderstood something i said. :)

I'm not ignoring you or anything, my wife sold our camera and I've been waiting for her to get a new one. I'll post a picture soon. The Fox does seem to be a little better though. I recently added a Humu from my QT, I know the Humu wasn't the cause of problems cause the Foxface issues started...

I dont know much about rays I just wanted to say that I'm jealous :D

I dont think a puffer will mess with an anemone.

Put the food on a feeding prong and rub it against his mouth until he bites at it. This is how I got my latest puffer to eat.
