I moved Elvis once he reached 10". I had him in the 125 for almost a year. You have time. Just keep watching the papers, local fish clubs, craigs list, garage sales etc. You can find a really nice tank for cheap. Just remember if you upgrade you may also have to upgrade some of your equipment. :D Just something to think about. If that's the case you can always use the 125 for the porc. :D

As edmlfc1 said you probley have 8-10 month before you will have to upgrade to a larger tank for the Stars and Stripes. The 125 would be great for a porc, you will find once hit with the puffer bug one is never enought. Got a picture of your baby to share?
