    Protein Skimmer

    I don't believe the G-2 will fit in my sump. The sump is 11x11 with a power head in there. Also height is a concern.

    Dog face and Porcupine Puffer compatibility

    depends on size of tank. the dog faced will probably be fine. its' the PP that you will have to worry about. I've done it in a 100 Gallon twice. 1st time the PP would attack the Dog every once in a while - it was a little difficult but I didn't change anything. 2nd time no problems ever. R

    Stocking a 120 gallon FOWLR

    Will two Tangs work, say two yellow or one yellow and one purple? Of course I would put them in there at the same time. I was told you need to have either one or 3+ tangs in a tank like that and that two Tangs wouldn't work.
