Hi, i was wondering if you can keep 2 different types of puffers in a marine tank. I was thinking of a valentini and what i think is a reticulated puffer (but was sold as a striped dogface) do you think they would be ok together??
Thanks
Lisa

I've seen it done. I plan on keeping a valentini with Shelby. Just be careful and make sure they tolerate each other, and be ready to move one in case of aggression.

I have also done this before. As suggested, just watch for unnecessary bullying.
