Tank size? If there is enough room & they are introduced as juveniles, then they should be ok together. See the GSP article in our Library for more info.

If you got 2 GSPs though, why would you want any other fish!

Re: can i keep more than 1 gsp in the same tank?
well my fahaka tank only has big al in it as he attacks anything that goes in the tank, and with my saps i had 6 in 1 tank.
so i would like more than 1 kind of fish in this tank, im leaning towards 2 gsp's but just wondered if i could put any other kind of fish with them.
the tank is about 90g.

Re: can i keep more than 1 gsp in the same tank?
Thats a nice size for 2 GSPs. With regards to tankmates though, I'm afraid I can't help. My old GSP was a single guy! & I haven't got the 2 new ones yet, but they will be the only fish in the tank. Hopefully someone will let you know if there is anything compatable (although I suspect it may be a bit hit & miss, & will depend on the puffers personalities).

Did you read that article? Tank mate suggestions in there.
