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!

Lovely water dogs, how much do you feed between everything?

Thanks! Typically, it's 4 cubes a day, they actually love Nori too, which I don't mind overfeeding them on. Maybe 2 sheets max. The Tessalata eats once a week, a chunk of shrimp, the Goldentail eats less but they go through cycles.
 
Thank you all for the nice pics!! Is anyone keeping coral with their puffers or just rocks? Mine seems to leave most softies alone but loves eating zoas. When I first added the rock from tbs it was eating the sponges and tunicates as well.

I want a puffer so bad but I love coral too!
 
Burped my puffer this weekend for the first time. Hope I never have to do it again.
