I have two figure 8's in a 55 gallon tank, what else could go with them.

Gobies - Bumble Bees or Knights. Maybe another F8?

I tried a bumble bee gobie with my F8's and it got eaten :( prehaps it was too small (?). In a big enough tank a school of monos make great companions. I also had a black moly with my F8's, she bullied them a bit and got bitten once and a while but got on ok. It partly depends on the puffer you have they all have different personalities (and can get more aggressive with age).
