lol, so true.

Thanks. I might be getting another tank or trading one of the puffers. The blue spotted has been beating up on the valentini pretty badly and I need to seperate them. He's at least a full inch larger than the valentini.

Heres a little 5 min video of my two canthigasters. A valentini and a blue spotted puffer. Ive had the valentini for a while and just bought the blue spotted yesterday. I took this video about an hour after I put him in the tank.

Yeah yours is awesome... I asked my LFS, but they said they couldnt order the leopard, I would have to just call when they receive shipments to ask. I picked up a blue spotted like yours yesterday and put him in with my valentini. The blue is obviously bigger and picking on the valentini, if it cont...

No, not yet. I just really like the look.

One of my LFS regularly gets different toby puffers, so I think it only be a matter of time before I see one.

Its a yes that the damsel is at risk of being eaten, but the bigger problem is the limited tank space.

20 gallons is not enough for the puffer on his own, dont add another fish to that tank

Really? The puffer doesnt eat your ghost shrimp or hermits?

When I put ghost shrimp in, they are gone within the hour.
Added hermits get nipped constantly and usually only survive about a day before becoming puffer food.

By leopard puffer, I was talking about this guy:

Not a GSP.

I keep turbo snails in the tank with my puffers and the puffers leave them alone.

They're pretty large though and can knock over unsecured rocks.

Just having a little fun, no hard feelings.

Besides, zombiefetus answered your question.

I have some lions and a few zebras in my backyard. When I came home today, the zebras were gone and the was grass all bloody.

What could have happened to them??

Will a Leopard puffer and a valentini co-exist in the same tank? From what I have read it seems to be hit or miss when putting tobys together.

Anyone every tried this combo?

Ive been in love with Battlefield since 1942 and vietnam. BF3 is awesome... so much to do. But I like COD a lot too. I realize its mainly just new maps, slightly upgraded graphics and a couple new weapons, etc. However, I love the frenetic paced multiplayer action. And I didnt discover elder scrolls...

Lol thanks, found it as "bak-pak" instead of backpac. Thanks!

I looked on google but couldnt find anything under "HOB Backpac." They thought I meant to type "hobo backpack."

Anyway, can you post a link or share where you purchased them? Thanks.
