Well today im home sick *cough cough* and my fish that i orderd came two days early! Im aclimating them now and it came with one fish i didnt order! I dont know what i'll do with it. Its a valentini puffer about the size of a quarter and i dont really have a place for it. Its going into a 10g now with a pistol and a cbs.
Any thoughts?

See if one of your LFS will take it for store credit
(That's what I would do) If you got it for free any credit you get is awsome.

i have a 10 and a 30 ready, but im weary of putting it in the 30 because i have many snails, hermits, and a small dancer shrimp. I have also herd they can pick at urchind and i have two and one is recovering from a *****. I dont know if its safe with them.

ok, will do. What size tank do they need? i might set up a tank just for him, i have some funds i have been saving up and he can stay in the ten for a few months right?

i wouldn't keep him in your ten gallon. You may go through significant spikes from what you should be feeding him and wtih his waste. Even if it is for a few months. Store credit, there only like 7 bucks.
