hello i have a red eye question

I've been away a while so i need some help
i have a red eye female in a 7gal mini bowel. who used to live with 2 dwarfs with minimal aggression. just the occasional nipping
my 2ND of two dwarfs died today due to tooth over growth. i couldn't keep my snail tank alive

i was considering putting another red eye in with here but don't know whether to put a female or a male in with her or just leave her alone.

the only time I've seen her really aggressive is against a 1 1/2 inch plec i put in there. she instantly bit the plecs eye out i guess she wanted to be the big girl on the block

any recommendation would be appreciated.

A 7 gallon isn't large enough for your puffer, IMHO. Is it an Irrubesco? If you must keep her in there, I'd keep only her.

Dwarves generally don't have tooth overgrowth problems. Maybe it's cause you kept it in your bowel?

Agree with LL - if you must keep an irrubesco in a 7g tank - please do not put anything else in there...its too small.
