I am trying to decide what to put in my 55 gallon tank that will be unique. I really do not want to try salt water or anything like that. I was wondering what you think the largest puffer I can keep in the tank for life would be. Tank is about 4 feet long 2 feet high and 1 food wide. Thanks!

Oh and just out of curiosity how many dwarf puffer fish could I keep in a 55 gallon tank like this? 20 or so?

you could keep a TON of dwarf puffers in a 55

A Tetraodon suvattii AKA pignose puffer or arrowhead puffer might be good they reach 5.5 to 6 inches and should be kept alone. They are ambush predators so he won't be very active until feeding time :)
