what can i stock in a 65 gallon tank 36lx20wx?h it looks almost like a square. i would like to go with a very colorful tank. anythink but salty. brackish maybe. but definetly planted heavly.
Cant really plant any live plants in a Brackish tank, they will die. With all that room you could do a lot of different things. A community of schools of small fish would be cool or you could house some bigger fish. Search the forums to see what others have done at that tank size.
You can, you just have to watch for any puffers that refuse to be nice.
You can have up to 6 figure 8's in the 65. 15 gals for the first f8, and 10gs for each one after that.
that would be awesome. what about other puffers? could i mix types.

Most of those you listed are freshwater puffers.
The Mbu is definitely out. They get 3' long and need 1000g aquariums.
Personally I wouldn't mix two different species. Their differences in size and aggression will lead to big problems.
