Hi
I have a tank 1.5ft high x 1ft deep x 3ft long, approx volume - 128L.
I had it set up as a community tank and have through time not added to it on purpose. I am now left wit one albino plec. I really want to re style it, and set it up for a puffer tank. I've read so much conflicting info, so my question is, How many puffers could i get away with in a tank that has lots of hiding places and blockers so there aren't lots of visible straight lines?
I want freshwater, but have read so much conflicting info about both amazon puffers and pea puffers.
Would be really interested to hear everyone's thoughts and ideally any pics of larger puffer setups!
Thanks in advance guys
Qty and species of puffer for my size of tank...

Perfect size for 10-12 DPs, with lots of plants. I have small plecos in with mine. SAPs like to be in groups of 6+ & that tank isn't large enough.
