I’ve had my toby puffer for a few months now and it’s easily becoming my favorite fish, watching it hunt crabs and look around the room with its dumpy eyes is too much fun lol.
If you’re keeping any toby puffers or other species please post some pics! Would love to see everyone’s puffs!

Hi all
I would like to rehome my dogface puffer fish. I'm not asking for any money, but want to make sure he is going to a good home. I've had him for a couple years, but have started adding more corals to my saltwater tank and he has been eating them. He is fine with softies like leathers and...
Hello, I have a 45 gallon tank that I set up last year. I've had two clownfish for nearly 5 months now. I am looking into getting a leopard puffer or a blue spotted puffer but I have some questions first.

I currently have a Scopas Tang, 2 Clowns, and a Valentino Puffer. I just noticed today that the Tang seems to have 2 bite marks on its back fins. Is it possible the puffer did this or even the clowns? They all seem very calm around each other and even swim together in groups. I have been cutting...

7” MAPPA PUFFERFISH 350
This guy is like my puppy! He will fallow you all over the tank and eat from your hand. He has been a joy to have since the past year. He was about 3” when I got him and has been a healthy fish and was quarantined before I...
I have had a valentini puffer for about 9 months now. He has been a great tank mate. I have been looking through post on them in here since I got him.
Reef safe? Thats going to depend on your tank and timing of getting him. Mine is reef safe but he does occasionally pick at a coral but not...

Hi Fellow Reefers,
I prefer to give all of my fish that can safely tolerate it a freshwater dip during their 2 month quarantine prior to releasing them into my display tank. I never exceed 5 minute long freshwater dips and remove fish early if I witness any concerning behavior outside of what I...
Hey there my new reef family I hope everyone has had an awesome day. My question is I want corals but i have a honeycomb toby puffer. He loves snails and tries to stalk my hermit crabs from time to time but is a very timid guy. Is there any corals I might be able to get away with and that are...
Hello all today I bought baby Valentini puffer it would be an understatement to say I’ve fallen in love as he is already so interesting but I must now ask, Ive learned they can indeed be coral eaters and while I may not be able to stop it is there any little things people have learned to do to...

Hey all. We got a Hawaiian spotted puffer which was added to a newly setup QT 4 days ago (1.023 gravity, HOB filter, powerhead and air stone available but not always used). We've gone the observation route first so no treatment has been given. We just noticed a few black spots on the puffer (and...
