Yes, Everyone gets along excellent. I think the spotted puffs ( 2 of them) may have had a bad experience with one of the corals.. The puffs peacefully swim next to all the fish in the tank.
( This was a gradual process of puffer - full conversion to salt, then adding the sand and rock, then some coral frags, ALOT OF OBSERVATION and then more fish and corals....)
DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE GREEN SPOTTED PUFFERS THAT HAVE ADAPTED TO LIVE IN A REEF TANK?
They don't touch my snails, hermits or the emerald crabs. (From what I see..)
These 2 Puffs went from the LFS freshwater tanks, to a brackish conversion, then a full salt and reef conversion.
It has been full reef for about 5 months now.

wow thats really cool. i remember back in my fresh water days when i had them. to think all i used to feed them was guppys, they would tear those poor little fish apart. good luck, what a cool addition to have in a reef
