Well, I have a porcupine and it's either a guineafowl or white/blue spotted puffer, like a dogface. I've had a terrible time trying to identify exactly what he is. I've also had brackish puffs in there with them and everyone got along great. I have 4 surgeonfish, a maroon clown, and an asfur angel. It's 180gal. I have the GSP acclimating now with a drip. I don't think he'll have any trouble in that tank. Everyone is friends in my SW tank! The F8 is alone now. Any bottom feeders I can put with him? He did great with cories. How about them in the smaller tank?

I have kept Fig 8s with cories but only until i started to bring the fig 8 up to BW after that it was a friend hydrovac and a bucket to keep the tank clean. every thing else was nibbled or wouldnt take BW.

PS the shark catfish that are BW to Marine get somewhat to obscenely predatory as they mature and most people never realize it until things are found torn up or just not found again.

My GSP acclimated beautifully to the marine tank. He's happy swimming around, and he even ate some krill. I think all is going to be well from here on out! Now I need another F8 for Weenie. :P
