Yeah I've heard dragon puffers are extremely aggressive eaters. Granted there's only 1 fish I can think of possibly working with one as long as it's a breeding pair. I've seen ppl keep convicts in with piranha and have them both coexist just fine as long as the convicts have an area where they can hide. Honeslty thought of trying it myself at some point as a sort of renewable food source for the larger fish. As long as there's atleast a male and female convict they should be able to keep there numbers up while only losing their largest members. Granted if they got nowhere to hide they are as good as dead.Definitely not recommended, as Palembangnesis are piscivores by nature and ambush hunters, so chances are any tankmates will end up as a snack eventually...
With that being said, how big is the tank coz you maybe able to keep them with their own kind or in certain cases T.Suvatti...
O yeah I've seen fugu puffers do the same at my lfs, they'd just bury themselves under the sand. Honestly a really entertaining fish to feed tho. Far more brutal then piranha are.Its still tricky, as these puffers lay there looking like rocks 99% of the time and its when an un-suspecting fish swims past that said fish can end up as quick snack for a hungry puffer...
Have a empty 75 gal for it for nowDefinitely not recommended, as Palembangnesis are piscivores by nature and ambush hunters, so chances are any tankmates will end up as a snack eventually...

It's an idea atleast but if worst comes to worst ya just end up with a $4-8 snack for the puffer.
