I recently purchased a rope fish and a ghost fish, both of which have been found to have carnivorous tendencies. Now one of my small glowfish has disappeared (presumably eaten)… how do I determine which one ate my fish and what can I do about it. I’d prefer not to get rid of any of my fish. I already feed them bloodworms and just purchased some freeze dried brine shrimp.
Any suggestions?
Also, I did not mention this, I did research on both fish in advance, I was aware that both fish were a risk…but I have had a very peaceful ghost fish in the past that never had any problems and the aquarium ppl said the ropefish was only a risk, that if kept well fed (and fed with some variety) it would most likely not attack my other (smaller 
fish.
I have a 40 gallon tank- was told this was perfect for the amount of fish I own which is currently 15.
How would the ghost fish and the ropefish do alone in a 20 gallon?

I have had a figure 8 puffer for about a month now, and all he will eat is live ghost shrimp, feeder guppies, and frozen krill. I have tried everything else; daphnia, brine shrimp, blood worms, etc. Nothing works! he just turns his nose! Its so frustrating because not only are his favourite foods more expensive and more difficult to keep around, but I want to make sure he has a varied diet, but he does not agree with that! Does anyone know of anything else I can feed him, or any way I can make other foods more enticing to him? Thanks so much!
Oh, and I forgot, he also OCCASIONALLY will eat live snails.
If I breed guppies for him, should I breed fancy guppies or feeder guppies? (he enjoys both very much lol )

I don’t want to know about all puffers. Just the figure 8 puffers. I know they eat frozen bloodworms and brine shrimp and snails. I also heard they Eat ghost shrimp is this true ? And any other infor would be very helpful Thanks.

I’ve heard ghost and brine shrimp and neon tetras so far.
To an aquarium, I mean.
I’m asking this question because I’ve seen it so many times that people say that bottom feeders, shrimp, etc don’t add much to the bioload because they eat the food that is going to rot on the bottom anyway. Since they still produce ammonia, they do add, but less because they also perform a cleaning job.
I don’t mean plants when I said organisms.
