i HAVE A 65 GALL. TANK. i WOULD LIKE TO PUT A PUFFER IN THEIR. i HAVE A 4 INCH BLUE TANG IN THERE RIGHT NOW. i WAS THINKING A PORK PUFFER.
 
Well i dont think there would be much of a problem except for the tang being somewhat large may have a problem with the puffer, since he was in there first. I think they will get along nicely but i'm sure others will have their own opinions. The only concern I have is thet tank being too small for a full grown pork. From my knowledge over time a pork will out grow a 65 so you may have to upgrade, but if you buy it small I am sure you wont have to worry about it at least for a year or so.

Size wise it would work for awhile, but the porky would out grow the tank down the road. My concern would be the water quality, hippo tangs (blue tang) need excellent water, and a puffer is a very messy eater, I know got 2, you will need a very good filter system to make it work. I have seen the both of them in the same tank before. Good Luck
