I don't know anything about puffers, but I think a 29 is too small for a flame angel. JMO.

I'm sorry, really I don't. My pygmy angel is pretty small but he still swims the length of my 55 constantly. Like I said, that's just my opinion. Maybe someone else will know if their is an angel that can do good in a 29.
BTW, how long is the tank?

I have a Blue spotted and he eats everything I feed them.....from flake to frozen foods to pellets.....I was always told that a flame angel was OK for a 29 gal so I wouldn't give up on it yet, just search this site for other posts on them to see what people say.

Spotted Puffer
(Canthigaster sp.)
Minimum Tank Size: 50 gallons
Temperament: Semi-aggressive
A 50 gallon or larger, fish-only aquarium is suitable. It may be aggressive at times, nipping the fins of tank mates, leaving a circular hole as its mark. It will eat invertebrates found in a reef tank. Its teeth are actually a fused beak-like structure which it uses to crush its prey.

Flame Angelfish
(Centropyge loriculus)
Minimum Tank Size: 30 gallons
Temperament: Semi-aggressive
It requires the minimum of a 30 gallon tank with lots of hiding places and live rock for grazing. The Flame Angelfish is prone to nip at stony and soft corals (sessile invertebrates) and clam mantles. If the Flame Angelfish is to be added to a peaceful community, it should be the last fish introduced. They adapt well to aquarium life, but should be kept in an established system and housed with dissimilar genera.

I think most people will disagree with this. The tank size, I mean.
