Are these easy to keep? Any one know anything about them? I plan on getting one for my 20g. (currently housing GSP) once I move Finn to a larger tank.

I do not think a 20g is large enough for a toby.

Pufferpedia says so.
Do you think that any saltwater puffer could be kept in a 20g?

Well, the smallest saltwater puffers are the tobies, right? Camille is a toby, and as active as she is I couldn't imaging keeping her in a 20 gallon.

toby puffers are extremely active foragers in the wild, particularly males depending on the species. ex hawaiian whitespotted toby males keep 4 or 5 females in which each female keeps a territory of approx 25 sq. feet. while we can't hope to match that in an aquarium, it give you an idea of what they prefer...
