Looking or a puffer to go in with some monsters

Post by Spitfire »

I love my Fahaka and all puffers but what i would like to know is there a puffer that would survive or not eat a garfish at present 8 inches and a red shark X at about 5 inches and a few lima's

As you in the know will know these get big so anything?
If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man.

Any puffer large enough not to get eaten by the gar will eat the gar.

It's the truth.
No matter how magnificent your successes or devastating your failures, the worlds' approximately 5 billion impoverished people could not possibly care less.

A mbu may be your only bet... but personally the gar would pester it too much
