Two puffers in one tank?

[tennisace]

Thinking about putting two puffers (yellow belly probably, and someother kind of dogface) Will be a 90g, but they will probably be in their by themselvs or with one other agressive fish. Is it possible?

keeping multiple puffers in the same tank generally isnt recommended. and keeping 2 types of dogfaces most likely would not be possible in that size tank.

I have a Porcupine puffer with a Dog Face puffer in my 120g tank, and everything is great

Generally, puffers do not like to see another puffer in such a close vicinity. I would definitely not recommend putting two puffers (especially two of the same family) into a tank of that size. Puffers are a territorial fish to their own kind, so while it may work while they are young, as they become adults, be aware that there will be conflict.
