GSPs and F8s

Post by Salmon »

Out of curiousity can you house GSPs and F8s together?
I was at an LFS the other day and they had F8s with "Leopard Puffers" which I'm pretty positive are GSPs and I was wondering if this was acceptable

Not really F8's are low end brackish species while adult GSP's are high end brackish to marine

In addition, GSPs are 3-5x the mass & aggressiveness than F8s. Housing fish at a LFS is short-term only.

Okay cool. I think both puffers look really cool but I only know about GSPs since I have one and have researched the crap out of them.
