Hi Guys,
This is my first post on this site and I just wanted to share my puffer set up with y'all(pics to follow).

My 2 puffers(Tetraodon fangi) are house in a 75G tank with 2 gars 2 cichla occelaris a flag tail and 3 bichirs. They seem to blend perfectly well.The gars doesn't seen to mind them and the cicclas are practically afraid of them...

Is it okay to offer my puffers mosquito fish of guppies, and can they catch this?... I usually find parts of the feeder fish on the ground( head only, bitten stomach, etc) and I'm not sure whether it is from them or not? and lastly, can you guys ID this please?(please add me in your Yahoo messenger so I can send over the picture)

And if there's any advise you can give that would help me...

Thanks so much!!!! :D
