I bought a Congo Puffer last Friday and he has not been eating, I did have a fahaka Puffer that kept attacking him but I gave it to my local fish store and I also bought some guppies for him to eat, and he is still not eating, please help me out with this situation.
Thanks

You housed him with a fahaka??? He is likely highly stressed from that situation. What size tank? Did you quarantine the guppies? How are you showing no nitrate? What test kits are you using?

Yeah I took out the Fahaka puffer, but unfortunately I lost the Congo puffer while I was away and my mom was taking care of him and he was eating. I did finally get another Congo puffer and I bought a Green spotted puffer, when I put the Green spotted puffer in the Congo attacked him and I took the GSP out and now the Congo puffer is not eating everything is normal. I was told that he was hype and he needs some time to calm down, can anyone else tell me about this?

This morning I wake up and I saw the little guy dead and I don't know how he died, I tested the water everything is fine and normal, but I do not know how he died.
