Dwarf puffer info?

[Bettalover06]

Hey guys my betta fish, Tofu, just recently died and I was thinking about getting a dwarf puffer. I have had lots of experience with bettas but I have never owned a puffer. My tank is about 5 gallons. Is that an ok size for 1 puffer? Also can you tell me what temperature I should keep the tank at? Do they eat dry bloodworms? (That's what I fed my bettas) and do you have any general pointers or tips for me before I get my puffer? I will attach a pic of my tank and the food I am planning on feeding him. Btw I know my tank is dirty and I will clean it thoroughly before getting my new fishy. One other question. I had a sucker fish in with my betta and he has seemed to disappear! Is it possible that my betta ate him? I have been looking and I can't find his body! I've also looked in all the shells and rocks!

My betta was alive for 3 or 4 years so I'm still mourning over him. First time I cried over a fish

1 DP is fine. Dried bloodworms are fine, but live pest snails are the best IMO. You can go by your LFS and pick up lots of free pest snails. I get loads of them from PetSmart and Petco.
