I'll soon be setting up a new tank for my dragon goby, as he's getting too old to be full freshwater and needs to be moved to brackish soon. As of right now, I'm looking for a 75 gallon tank, and the only tankmates I have in mind for sure are Sailfin Mollies and Nerite snails. What are people's thoughts on dwarf puffers in this tank? Am I asking for trouble? The ones I have in mind don't get larger than an inch long, but I don't want to risk anybody picking on anybody else. From what I've read, the Nerites' shells are too thick for dwarf puffers, plus, I'd be feeding common pond snails regularly. Would the puffers chew on the mollies' fins?
Thanks!
 
Puffers can be mean lil guys, that's why I decided against them in our BW. I currently have 6 bumblebee gobys, 2 dragon gobys, 2 dozen mollies (various colors) 5 unpainted indian glass fish and a swarm of ghost shrimp.
