sell the bicher and there are a bunch of puffers you can get, that tank would fit a fahaka nicely, but i wouldn't put any puffers with a bicher

IMO bichirs are cooler than puffers, but that's just me. I have both :D

I really liked my ex and I's Polypterus Palmas, Phillip, but he crawled out to his death. Sadly, he didn't do much other than eat nightcrawlers and sit under a pile of lock-rocks, but he was cute. I would guess similar entertainment level to a lurker puffer though.

Dunno really. Get some other cool fish and make it a biotype tank.

I was gonna say that but then we're discouraging getting a puffer on the puffer forum..... So yeah, sure, get a puffer.
(get some big community fish instead!)
