The Puffer Forum

Hi there,
I'm very new to puffers and for Christmas I'm setting up a 15 gallon puffer tank. I'm going to get a single figure 8 puffer, but I was wondering if I could get 2-3 bumblebee gobies as well. I'm going to have plenty of caves, rocks, fake plants and hopefully live plants. On aqadvisor the stock level is 107% and my filtration is an enihim pickup 60. I can get a sponge filter if that would be needed as well though. Would this work, or if not are there any tank mates for my figure 8 puffer?
Thanks in advance, Kate.

Considering a 15g is the bare minimum for a single F8, you could try a few BBGs but my F8s always ate them. I wouldn't try anything else.

Awsome thank you for the reply. I’ll try them if it goes well then I’ll stick with them if not, I’ll take them back. How many would you recommend?

2-3

Why not just go with a 20 gallon or a little larger? The extra 5 gallons wouldn't take up much more room but would give more for a larger bio-laod.

Yeah if you’re in the us, a 29g set up is probably cheaper than a 15

^^^^^^
AGREED!!!

Noticed they’re in NZ...
