    hahah... i think you will be fine.... Oh i forgot to say if your cleaner is very good sized I dont think the puffer will bother it... Other than "may" nip at it's atenea "sp"... thinking its a worm or so on...

    But non-the-less


    Best of Luck..!!!

    Good ole fashion drip method... Or if you dont have tubing to do so... I slowly add water from my DT to my new fish... and i wait to add that fish/invert till the water has doubled to what it came in ...

    Just 2 idea's that i use...



    Best of Luck...
