Re: Arothron Meleagris.
Thats interesting you mention Caluerpa - I harvest it pretty regulary and throw it into my main puffer tank. The Stellatus goes crazy over it (of course he eats anything), and the mappa particularly likes it too. The Hispidus, Nigropunctatus and Janithoptera could care less....wonder if it has to do with their original locations - possible more/less grows there and their particular lineage is used to it...?
