You might want to get a bigger tank. Puffers are very active and need room to swim around. I think there are some fw puffers that don't grow as fast but you would have to do some research. Maybe another member has more info, but get a bigger tank before you attempt to house any aggressive fish.
thanx for the advice but i think i'm leaning towards a brackish water puffer tank mostly with green spotted or dwarf but if you know of any other brackish water puffs i like to know asap! Cos i can't find tham at Petsmart! Thanx for all your good advice!
Figure 8 puffers aren't brackish water fish they can tolerate brackish conditions but it causes stress to the fish over long periods of time. They are best kept in full-strength saltwater.
Don't listen to those people....I have 2 Figure 8's and a Leopard Puffer and they are all in brackish and love it....they eat great and swim all day in it....but I do have them in a 35 gallon with some Tiger Barbs too. bdean@indy.rr.com
