JPTFish Tank

[JPTFish]

Hello, posting my tank. I’m here to learn. I like softies and LPS. Corals that look like flowers are my favorite. I like simple, easy keepers. Current residents are a deformed Toby puffer (severe underbite), clown, possum wrasse, lady leopard wrasse, cling fish, a tessellated blenny from Biota, Halloween crab, and an urchin. Everyone has a name and they all get along extremely well. They love their plank autofeeder. This is a simple little tank with high return on maintenance vs enjoyment time.

The tank looks great. We have the exact same puffer and he is one of our favorites.

I love the maint vs enjoyment aspect.

Great looking tank! Have you run into any issues with your pufferfish?

No, he doesn’t and has never picked at any corals. If he sees an amphipod go by he sure will go after that. He sure enjoys frozen or freeze dried mysis shrimp. My urchin is the naughtiest resident.

Adding to that that Toby doesn’t seem to care about frozen clams on a half shell. Maybe it’s due to his underbite, really unsure. I’ve considered many times getting a small clam but never done it. Been too afraid he maybe wouldn’t be able to help himself. Had other live “food” clams in the tank and he ignored them. Had him now for 3+ years and the bulk of those corals for 2 years. No issues whatsoever.

The only thing I must do for Toby is get him to the vet to get his beak trimmed (yearly trimming).
