Which Puffer?

Post by Cary »

Greetings,
I'm new to Puffer Fish, but have a background in keeping Mbuna Cichlids.

I have a new cylced 65 gal (3 foot) tank ready for some Puffers.
I'm having a difficult time figuring out what type of Puffer to go with.
Green Spotted? Figure Eight? or other?

I'd like to have 3 or 4 of them in my tank, and it would be really nice if I could get some other fish in there as well.
I'm cool with going Brackish or Freshwater.

From my research it seems that 'Figure 8 Puffer fish' are the best selection for my needs.

Thoughts/ideas?

After further reading, it seems that F8 Puffers would work best for me, as I'd like to have 3 or 4 and maybe even a few Gobbies in their as well.

Cheers :)

I've kept both F8s and GSPs in brackish with archers , scats and gobis..
