[welcome]
I highly suggest separating those 2 puffer species. The GSPs will prefer marine conditions, compared to the F8 at very low BW (SG of 1.013-5). Also, the GSPs will grow 3x the mass of the F8 & will bully the poor fellow.

I agree with Bertie-I hope they're not all in one tank? and If so, it's a large one? No doubt take PufferPunk's word of advise-she has been insanely helpful on my end and knows exactly what she's talking about.

Anyway, welcome to the forums!
