The Puffer Forum

How many different kinds/species of puffers could you house in the same tank without too much trouble? With the tank being about 250 gallons.

I wouldn't combine puffer species.

I don't think you can generalize like that. Very few puffers can be housed together, and with limited success. I second PP! =D

I was thinking a dogface and a porc could live together in a 250g.

+1 to PP's comments.

i have seen porcupines and dog faces together and they never seem to have any issues. but thats just my opinion

I've also seen many times that combo resulted in death.

You have to think LONGTERM success. What is wrong with one or the other?

I always think LONGTERM, I was just putting the question out there to see what people think, and I have seen on this forum where people are keeping more than one type of puffer together, I haven't placed more than one species together and wouldn't without research.

I don't condone those pufferkeeping practices. As far as I can tell, none of those combos have worked long-term.
