Can a GSP mix with a black saddled toby?

Post by puffcrusader696 »

I got a green spotted puffer thats converted to saltwater and is doing fine. could i mix him with a black saddled toby in a big enough tank. i know all puffers have different dispositions and maybe if i get a mild toby with my wuss gsp theyll be fine... need some input hope this can work! :D

Yeah. As long as you think your puffers have good enough personalities in should work great, and as long as your tank is big enough with lots of hiding places.

But you just never know with puffers... I find tobies to be quite shy & gentle. Not so w/GSPs, who can be quite the brute.

I have two GSP's with my Black Saddled Toby they get along great, ok Pong the Larger GSP and Pong the smaller, will bite each other sometimes, but they love Trigger the Toby..
