Puffers should ONLY be in a species tank ... none others. They are
aggressive, period.




what do you mean by a species tank?

A tank dedicated to a specific species?

Thats what i was leaning towards thinking and yet all the information i can
find states that you dont NEED to do this, ie if youre careful what you
house them with?


I hear that Colomesus Asellus are less aggressive than other types of
puffers. They are also freshwater.

Thats the boyo i was looking at, or possibly one of the spotted pufferfish.


Just don't put them in with angelfish as their long fins won't last long.

Yep, had sussed out the "long fins attract puffer nips" bit :-)

I am planning to put him in a 190 litre trigon (corner) tank when we get it.
