Hi ..
I'm wondering if it could be possible to keep some kind of puffer with a large mated cichlid pair. I have en pair of mota's and rivulatus and some odd balls in a 6 foot 180 gallon tank, and cichlids are my fav kinda fish in freshwater, but i really love the behaviour of puffers/triggers/toby's. I'm thinking of upgrading my tank to a 6 foot 240 gallon with a single pair of either: dovi, jag, umbee or trimac and i would SO love to have a large'ish puffer in with them(i have LOTS of hiding places for the kids, a bit morbid but i love to see the parents exibit hunting behaviour)..
c'mon give a man some(realistic) hope here , hope you can help a brother out...
Happy landings and frequent water changes for all of you guys
