Honestly I got the plec he went straight onto the glass near the puffer and he went over to the plec looked around him.. Then went off they totally ignore each other. Getting rid of the plec tomorrow anyway as its making far to much mess

Plec has gone to a brilliant home 500L tank with parrot fish and another large plec.. Was wondering has anyone tried African leaf fish in with any ambush puffers?

Seen one tank with a guy with a heavily planted tank with 2 of these leaf fish and his congo puffer... been running the same set up for 10 months.. May set up another tank as leaf fish are soo cool!

Definitely go for a separate tank if you like the fish. Many of the reports of co-habitation are a somewhat new setups. There are plenty of people that dont consider a tank mature unless its been running for a year or more.
