Re: amazon puffer questions??
That's only ~33g. It is suggested 15g for the 1st SAP & 10g for every one you add. That tank is only large enough for 2 SAPs. They prefer to be in groups of 3 or more. I suggest picking a different species.

Not only is the tank too small, but they can be high maintenance as they usually require teeth trims, even with a heavy snail diet. You could get a figure 8, but if you're hoping for a freshwater puffer you could get a group of Dwarf puffers.
