Any "reasonably" safe puffer for a reef tank?

[jerod89]

I think puffer's have some of the best personalities and I would love to add one to my reef. My favorites are the blue spotted and papuan puffer's, but research suggests that a leopard puffer (Canthigaster leoparda) would be my best bet. Has anyone had any luck keeping a certain species in a mixed reef?

Any Canthigaster species is a risk to add to a mixed reef, IME the smaller the specimen the safer, so the leopard would be your safest choice, but still may nip.

There have been stories that go either way good and bad but I am one the people that would say try it but that's just me.

I agree.
