So, I originally wanted a snowflake eel in the 75-gallon tank I plan to buy, but I currently own two clownfish and a damsel, and they are meant to go in the 75 once I get it and I've read it's a gamble when it comes to snowflake eels, and they could eat my fish. So I was wondering if a valentini puffer would be okay in a 75 with those fish. I also plan on putting a coral beauty in there as well as a flame hawkfish.

Thank you, Katie.

The closest thing I've had Saltwater resembling a puffer was a Triggerfish but when I saw a Valentini Puffer I almost pulled the trigger again to setup a Saltwater aquarium. It will depend on the puffer's personality but personally would give it a try with the fish you plan to add in the 75.

Valentini aren’t that bad, should be okay…honestly it’s the clowns and damsels I’d worry about aggression from.
