Anyone have a leopard puffer with SPS? I know many puffers will snack on SPS but this species is known for eating crabs and shrimp in the wild. I'd be happy to sacrifice shrimp and clams to keep one. I will not however sacrifice SPS colonies.

i had one with my tank and he was amazing! for 3 months.
he then caused roughly 800$ in damage over night.

I've had a saddleback Valentini for about 7 months in what is supposed to be a FOWLR. But whenever I break off a piece of coral in my main tank ( either as part of pruning or by accident), I often stick the frag in my puffer tank. She occassionally knocks things off of rocks (I don't glu things in this tank), but hasn't eaten anything.

I have frags of SPS (montis and birdsnest), LPS (frogspawn), and softies (leathers and 'shrooms). So all kind of weed-like corals. I wouldn't care if she did eat them, but it makes the tank a little more interesting than just having piles of rocks and one fish.

I believe he ate all his corals?
