I like the pufferfish but they have been known to nip coral polyps sometimes.

Welcome to Reef2Reef.

(FW= Fresh Water)
Hi Kris, Lipstick is a Mimic File Fish, they look exactly the same as a Valentine Puffer, but without the poisen. Thought it best to stay away from more complicated fish right now. Lipstick is my favorite he eats only crab out of the claw I have to clip it to the inside of the tank lol. Luckily my son is a keen fisherman and I get fresh crb when needed. Trying to get him to eat his greens but no luck so far

You mentioned that in your introduction but I took a quick look at Lipstick and thought to myself; "That puffer is pretty. I wonder if it's safe?"
That's what happens now that I'm getting old. I forget a few of the details along the way if I am not careful. The sly filefish certainly tricked me one time.

If you start an old folks home, can me and LIpstick count on junior for crab 1X/week? I can help clean reefs, too!

Welcome again :)
