I have a 90 gallon tank that I want to put a single fish in. I know how personal Triggers are but have never owned a Puffer.
Which would make a better "pet?"
Thanks.

LOL, you're on a puffer forum. What do you think most of us would answer???

I have a 85 gallon reef tank with a Dog-faced and 2 GSPs, and I would not trade my Dog-face for anything at this point. I equate the combination to having a big dog and two smaller dogs that you keep in a fish tank. They meet you at the glass when you walk in the room,and they are constantly playing and being goofy in the tank.
