Peruvian Puffers?

OK slightly worried now, the puffer with the mark has now got a clamped fiin on that side.....well i doesnt move now, just flat against the skin, should i be worried??

Don't be worried, but do watch what happens. Look at the interactions between the puffers and the other fish. It's certainly possible for SAPs to be nipped by nippy fish, and mine were when I kept them with Ameca splendens.

he seems to be better now, using that fin more, and their appetite seem to get bigger every day! althought one did get stuck in the fliter bubble thing, i tried pushing him out but he was stuck, then he puffed up and got out, he's lost all his colour and is in hiding, but he doesn't looked harmed. i hope hes alright. have their new tank set up though!
