Can anyone share experiences or advice on either the Mimic Saddle Puffer (a filefish) (Paraluterus prionurus) OR the true Valentini puffer it mimics in a reef tank...
-Which picks less @ LPS & soft corals?
-Does either pester other fish (nip fins etc.)?
-I've heard the Mimic (Paraluterus prionurus) is often reluctant to feed, once in the display tank (if is housed with more active fish (like tangs or anthias). I don't know anyone who has owned a Valentini.
My husband really wants one ( either species). But I'm researching them first.
