WOW 75 gallons? Or 75 Litres...but that may be why your puffballs are not attacking anything. Do you happen to have any fish that are like way way larger than your puffers...may explain why they are so docile.

Just an update that all is well and good two of my pea puffers have coupled up the other has made friends with a guppy. Yes a guppy and they swim together all the time and take turns chasing each others. So once again it may not be for everyone's dwarf puffers but mine are still doing well in a community tank. No eyeballs sucked out yet but I do watch for that ;)

We can agree to disagree since they are adults and have been peaceful for 7 months I will let you know how they are when a full year is up
Let us know when 5 years is up! :?

Like mbu puffers, the personalities of DPs can vary greatly. You can do whatever you want, but keeping them in a community tank is risky.
