That puffer will eventually eat your BBGs & will attack the dragon goby too. You have to do your own stirring of the sand & then skim off the top for detrius, when you syphon for WC.

my puffers dont mess with the dragon goby, however mine are in a 55 gallon tank and the puffers stay to one side and the goby stays to the other, i also have knight gobies in there, but all are peaceful in my little glass neighborhood.
Fiddler crabs do a good job of cleaning the sand. There was a very big difference in my tank after only having him in there a couple of days. Plus they are docile and as long as you give him a hiding spot for molting should withstand the puffer. On top of all that they make a nice natural addition to your tank IMO.
Currently I keep 3 flounder with my juvenile GSP. I know he might go for them someday but for now he ignores them (also they are fast- faster than kuhli loaches!). The flounder stir the sand very well and clean up whatever the GSP doesn't eat.
