The Puffer Forum

So, I got a Valentini today! He went in to my 29 gallon ,which is currently home to one lawnmower blenny, a few pounds of LR, featherdusters and one anemone. He is maybe an inch (at most) and buzzing around all over the place. Can I get some mushroom polyps in there you think? Any advice, as I have never had a Valentini before? I can't wait to get some pics up!

I heard they are coral eating machines. They like acropora and montipora, little hermit crabs sometimes. (I have heard in some cases they have no interest.) I cannot say things from experience but I do know that weird things happen in my house. IE: Scooter Blennys and Mandarin living peacefully, Ribbon eel kept alive for over a year..etc etc.
I am sure some of the experts on here can give you a hand though. I hope what little advice I can give helps. All and all they are handsome looking puffers!

Its hit or miss with puffers. My pink spotted didn't bother anything, while my Paupen wiped out my zoos and shrooms. He tries to take a chunk out of my leather, but can't break it.
