puffer fish

[tura71]

Is there any kind of puffer that would be ok in a 90 gallon tank? Also does anybody know of a good site to check for marine compatibility?

check live aquaria

I did check that site and according to that I could get a saddle puffer. I guess that I didn't realize it was an option. Does anyone have any experience with this fish?

if you are going reef then i dont recomend them because they can be pickers.they also love to eat snails.they can produce twice the amount of amonia(because they have a voracius apetite)

Amazing wealth of knowledge, and friendly people to boot. They have an entire saltwater puffer section.

Definitely a Valentini Puffer. We just got one last night and can already see what a personality he has. It's hit or miss, as far as them bothering snails, crabs and shrimp. Our Valentini has killed two small hermits so far, and to be honest, it's quite entertaining We have a CBS that holds his own very well, so the Valentini hasn't bothered him.

They don't get too big- 2 or 3 inches at max. They're also one of the most reef-safe puffers, I believe.
