Oops! But he was so Cute!

Post by HRPuffersnStuff »

So, I got a Valentini today! He went in to my 29 gallon ,which is currently home to one lawnmower blenny, a few pounds of LR, featherdusters and one anemone. He is maybe an inch (at most) and buzzing around all over the place. Can I get some mushroom polyps in there you think? Any advice, as I have never had a Valentini before? I can't wait to get some pics up!

I heard they are coral eating machines. They like acropora and montipora, little hermit crabs sometimes. (I have heard in some cases they have no interest.) I cannot say things from experience but I do know that weird things happen in my house. IE: Scooter Blennys and Mandarin living peacefully, Ribbon eel kept alive for over a year..etc etc.
I am sure some of the experts on here can give you a hand though. I hope what little advice I can give helps. All and all they are handsome looking puffers! :D

Its hit or miss with puffers. My pink spotted didn't bother anything, while my Paupen wiped out my zoos and shrooms. He tries to take a chunk out of my leather, but can't break it.
