150 Gallon Tank: Puffer Compatibility

1simonbob · January 24th, 2010

I just inherited a green spotted puffer from my daughter who has kept it in a freshwater tank with no salt for 3 months. I am quarenting it with my crabs in my 20 gallon but am curious about moving it to my main tank with a dog face puffer and a lion fish in there. There are no problems in my tank with my current fish mates but didn't know about the compatibilty of these two puffers.
