Most puffers are not reef safe so I'm not sure how many others might have exp here.

I'm pretty sure those types of puffers actually pick at anemone's, maybe some puffer experts can chime in on that.

I think your saying the carpet anemone has eaten the puffer? Nice!

They are beautiful looking creatures, I want one, but can’t have one for this reason.

I don’t know if the puffer is poisonous so......

Sorry to hear about your puffer. Out of curiosity, may I ask what type?
Spiky box puffer he was great with fish and coral for short time I had him + side is don't have to worry about working for parasites as they are bad to contract them
