Whew PP you got everyone hungry on this thread. I think you need to set a guard on your puffer or someone might turn it into a snack
Ive never seen that type of puffer before! Im always surprised how many types there are.

I've been thinking that, but I gotta get a bigger tank for my GSP first, and the way it looks now that could be a couple more years.

That is quite a name! And well suited.
Yes, one cone is plenty for a 10, and you won't have many DPs in there to have feeding conflicts. With DPs, I put a very small unglazed terra cotta pot saucer on the substrate under the cone. If any worms make it down to the saucer, the least dominant DPs can still get them before they get out of the saucer and burrow into the substrate. It does help reduce the worm infestation in the tank.
