valentini puffer?

[hunt]

how can i tell if my valentini puffer is a male or female?

 

[hunt]

anyone have an idea?

 

[florida joe]

the only way i know of it that males are larger and will not tolerate other males in the same tank

 

[hunt]

dang, i was hoping for something in coloe or body shape. I only have one in my tank so kinda hard to tell if its larger compared to another.

 

[florida joe]

will your LFS let you bring a fish back if its not compatible

 

[hunt]

Ill only take it back if it causes problems.(its not) What do you mean compatable?

 

[florida joe]

if you add another valentini and they don't get along you have two males

 

[hunt]

wasnt thinking of adding another puffer, heard it was a bad idea, I am thinking of adding a colt coral(if the puffer hasnt eaten my mushrooms, will it probably not go for a colt?) I was also thinking about getting a six line wrass to. I Have Two false purcula clowns and a valentini puffer. Aa six line would be fine if it werent an aggressive one right.

 

[florida joe]

you can add one male and multiple female puffers. you are rolling the dice with the sixline

 

[hunt]

why with the six line, cause they can be aggressive
