    Porcupine Puffer with a sore?

    WOW! I got my from saltwaterfish and he was only and 1" long, he is now 9" long and my favorite. He is so much fun! My reef tank's glass broke on Wed and we are in the process of cleaning up the mess! I lost everything, there was glass and sand everywhere. YUCK.

    Thanks a million, I'll give it a shot! I lost my reef tank this week, it would kill me to lose him too.

    Porcupine Puffer with a sore?

    The damsel has been with the puffer for 5yrs, he was my test fish to see if both of my puffers tanks had cycled properly. I will try to get a picture of it and post if, my puffer is a little camera shy.

    Porcupine Puffer with a sore?

    Only two other fish in the tank with him, one is a 4 stripe damsel and the other is a convict gobie. Everything else; a chocolate chip star & two pincushion urchins. He ate last night when I fed him.

    Porcupine Puffer with a sore?

    I have a 5yr old Porcupine Puffer with what looks like a sore behind his eye and in front of his gill. It doesn't appear to be an open sore, yet. Has anyone ran across a similar problem with the Puffer? What can I do?

Maybe a day or two of no krill will help. I hate the thought of ripping apart the reef tank, that is such a chore!

    Porcupine Puffer & a Chocolate Star

    I would like to put a Chocolate Chip Star in a 45 gallon tank with a Porcupine Puffer. The only other fish in this tank is a 4 stripe Damsel. The Puffer is approx 8" long and only eats freeze dried krill. Has anyone tried this before?
