how many glowfish could i get in there? im going to put one of those corys that only get 2" i dont think he will take up too much space because they like to hide and chill

Aaaww, don't do that to regular sized Corydoras. They need to be kept in groups and 3 gal isn't near big enough. There's a species of Corydoras called Corydoras pygmaeus that gets about an inch max (if that). I've never kept them but a tri of them would be better than the normal sized Corys. Anyone know about them?

it sounds like a cool idea..could i get 2? and where do i get them?
In a 3.5 gallon i would go with one they need alot of decorations to feal comfertible they like live plants you might be able to get away with a group of 2-3 the problem is there Bio load Puffers make alot of waste and need very clean water there very sensative to nitrates nitrites and ammonia but with alot of live plants to help with water quality you might be able to get away with 2 or 3 but usually its recomended that you give them 5 gallons for each puffer so some will say not even one will be okay in a 3 gallon

If you do get a group make sure that they are sexed DON'T get two males they will fight to the death get 1 male and the rest females

Nope there totally freshwater they can handle a little salt in there water just fine though however you shouldn't use the salt sold as aquarim salt on any freshwater fish for long periods of time for there health
 
no forget about puffers im not going to get any. and the 1" corys; are they hard to find? remember im getting a few glo-fish too
