Puffa fish help

[Punkyfish]

Hey, I'm looking at getting a pufferfish either the figure 8 or 2 dwarf puffers. Which is better personality wise and what size tank am I going to need? Any suggestions on keeping puffers would be appreciated thanks

Puffers are brackish fish, and are VERY aggressive.

Dwarf puffers are fw... and I'm thinking figure 8's are too.. but I'm not a puffer expert.

Here's what looks to be a pretty good site for dwarf puffer info- Dwarf Puffers : Home

Oh... Then which ones are brackish?

GSP's are for sure... but like I said, my puffer knowledge is very limited.

Ah, that was what I was thinking *face palm* my bad.

Yea they're fw. I'm planning on keeping which ever I choose in a tank on it's own due to the aggressive nature, although I have read that otos have shown to do well with them whilst helping with algae issues. Still unsure of tank size though.

Check out dwarfpuffers.com. I think you can do 3 or 4 in a ten gallon.
