Will the puffer nip your other fish, or are they all living happily?
 
Butters (the puffer) is still really small, he is not too much bigger than my Gobies or the Flounder. He leaves everyone alone unless they get close to his food but other than that everyone is happy and living in harmony
 
Now there is always a chance when he gets bigger that he might start nipping fins but that's why I got them all when they were young hoping if they kinda "grew up" together in the same tank they would be fine.
 
I enjoyed looking at your brackish tank.

A figure 8 would be better suited for your tank.
 
I had originally ordered a Figure eight but they sent a green spotted to the LFS and I had to take him home after I saw him, plus I have a bigger tank I can upgrade to once the little guys gets bigger
 
You will have to setup a 40g or bigger tank with live rocks, skimmer, and refugium as the next tank for your GSP because its the best way for you to save money for those expensive SW water changes. Fun project IMO.
 
yeah I have a 75 in storage with everything needed for a saltwater tank so no worries there. Just cant really have a 75 in my apt right now, plus the Butters (the puffer) is under and inch right now so I got time lol.
