Pufferfish are poor swimmers and poorer hunters, so their diet consists mostly of algae and invertebrates who cannot run (or rather swim) away. Large Pufferfish use their bird like beaks to crack open shellfish like mussels and clams. They also use the bacteria found in their food to synthesize a poison that is deadly to predators and even to humans!

Do puffer fish and dalmatian molly fish get a long?
I've heard that they can get along for a while, but it's common that the puffer fish latter eats it. o.o But when I put a dalmatian molly with my green spotted puffer it was the molly that chased the puffer and was mean to it ( I sperated them right away). So I don't think it's a good idea, and it really depends on the fishes personality. But really it's just not worth it and puffers should only be housed alone or with others of their own kind.
