Right now my puffers are just big enough not to fit in his mouth, but I'll probably need to divide the tank later on, or set up a tank for him by himself.
He's an Orange Toadfish I named Romeo.
I'm hoping he's male because males make croaking frog noises to try to attract mates <3
My Puffers: 55g (2) GSP, (2) Maroon Clownfish, (1) blue damsel, And some soft corals and 1 Nem 45g FW community 20g snail and shrimp breeding tank for puffers
I picked him up at a local fish store (Wayne's Feed in Rockford, IL- kind of a dirty store, but they have really weird fish for good prices.)
We were originally looking for a larger marine puffer, but they didn't have any in, and this guy was too cool to pass up.
He's saltwater. About 6" right now. There's not a whole lot of info out there on these fish, but I guess he can grow to 12".
He eats frozen silver sides, and shrimp.

I wouldn't count on it. I found this video on YouTube today, of a frogfish trying to eat a porcupine. I am not sure who I feel sorry for - probably both of them.

Yeah I'll probably look into putting a divider in the tank tomorrow. But Romeo has never eaten live food, so I don't think he would even try to eat the puffers, but who knows. Better to be safe than sorry I guess.
