Well looks like there was some action in my brackish tank after lights out last night. Everyone was fine last night but this morning when i turnede the light on I noticed the targetfish i got last week was missing, that a F8 puffer has a small circular wound on his belly, and that my moray eel is not so active and kinda looks like he's having some trouble digesting something... oh, and there's a big poop in the corner that seems more greyish than what usually comes out of the eel.
It doesn't quite all add up though because the wound on the F8's belly looks like it came from another puffer based on it's circular shape. The target's mouth isn't shaped like that nor is the eel's. I do suspect that the eel swallowed down whatever was left of the targetfish and maybe he's having trouble digesting the sharp spines of his dorsal fin. Hope he's ok. All of my other tank parameters are looking fine so I'm assuming everything was due to some sort of fight.
Any other thoughts on what may have happened?

. It's impossible to say what happened - but with the sorta "witches brew" cooking in there with all these predators, there are any number of possibilities.
