Dogface Puffer Question???

[fish4901]

Do you think I could keep a dogface puffer with my sohal tang and bird wrasse. I plan on getting a trigger or two. May be an angel. Only one trigger if I got an angel. Do you think it would be possible to have a dogface puffer?
Thanks!:happyfish

I would not put a dogface with a trigger, other than a niger or blue throat. I have seen humu humu's beat up dogface puffers pretty badly. Other than that, you should be okay.

I disagree, I've seen Picassos and DF Puffers act quite harmoniously (sp) on a lot of occasions. Triggers, when they act ultra aggressive, act that way to a lot of tankmates. I have the two together and they do fine.
Are you gambling.. yes, you always do with triggers. But I think more often than not they will get along.

Triggers are much smarter than you think. They're well aware that puffers are not the ones to mess with. Even the most aggressive trigger would be reluctant to do so. Generally puffers and triggers have few compatibility issues.
