Someone had told me that wrasse such as the Red Coris that burrow in the sand to sleep would be endanger of being attacked by the puffer. This is what I was told. "Any fish or animal that buries in the sand can inadvertently be bitten by a puffer. It is their natural feeding/hunting instinct to blow the sand at night and look for food. Many buried wrasses have fallen victim to a puffer's teeth" I'm just looking to confirm this. Thanks.
