So the eel took a good chunk out of the puffer and now he is dead i thought he might live but i didnt realize the severity of the bite so what i was wondering is should i try another porky puffer a smll striped dogface or a stars and stripes puffer they all are small and at the lfs im thinking the porky because of his spikes but that didnt really help this one. i want to get the species that is most active and eats the most any response is very welcomed thanks

I would have to say a porc puffer is your best bet... GREAT personality, and they have more of a defense than most other puffers :D

I feel I have to side with austin on this one im also a new hobbiest and although i have researched very hard i did have a niger trigger and a porcupine puffer fight to the death. Fish are unpradictable everyone has lost at least one fish in there time so why make a sarcastic remark on someone just trying to get some advice. so he doesnt make the same mistakes. come on now would you really think twice about putting a snowflake eel and a stars and stripes or a porcupine puffer together. I wouldnt they usually are fine together so i think you should be less hipacritical to other less experienced members of the board.
 
Austin, I would agree that your not in the wrong on this but don't over-react either. Remember, you don't have to like what someone says on here, but be the bigger man and ignore worthless comments.
And just for your information, I learned from you experience and stayed away from the purchase of a small puffer last night because I have yet to get my snowflake eel to eat (been a few days since he was added). Thanks for the info.
I would see if your lfs can get in a larger specimen. My lfs is able to order in larger ones, but of course, you pay for them also. Good luck.
 
don,t take it to heart , people will say things you don,t like ,but push those aside and continue with your hobby ,good luck :D
