Porcupine Puffer added to reef tank

[lance1337]

Added a small porcupine puffer to my reef tank. Thought he would have a feast on the zoas, palys, and aptasia i have in the tank. He's not bothering them at all. Although I have some fake hard corals in the tank that he keeps trying to eat lol. He is about 3 inches and cute as a button. Currently eating fresh squid rings, fresh shrimp, fresh clams, and fresh scallops from publix.

They really are one if the cutest fish, just hope you have a large tank for when it gets to the size of a football

I have a 70 corner plus 20 sump at the moment. When I move into my house i will be upgrading to at least a 200 plus a 55 sump.

Do you have any inverts- Crabs, shrimps, stars?

I have seen them start off in a reef tank doing very well...and then one day...started eating and picking on everything
