any puffer that can live with BGK and other fish in a 150 gallon tank?
 
Mbu seem to tolerate tankmates. But not sure about a 150g. If it’s a growout then yes. Wes has one on his stock list.

Pea puffer?
If not a pea puffer than I don't want one lol. I should have specified that that is what I wanted

They are too small. Can see a bgk eventually eating them up.

Ok I was pretty sure of that but was thinking that maybe not... thanks
Also I looked at the leopard puffer and my lfs said that they have only had 1 before and that if I wanted one it was going to run in the $500-$1000 range although that seems outrageous.
 
For a leopard puffer...you mean a green spotted puffer? This is a common trade name for T. Nigroviridis.
 
Guy said leopard higher up so I asked guy at lfs

Although this guy is a butt. He doesn't know anything and he is super rude but all the other workers are super smart and nice unless I am trying to convince them to sell me a bumble be goby to put in my freshwater tank :P
 
Schoutedni can go a $200 plus I’ve seen but not $500-$1000. I don’t keep puffers so not sure what they’d truly go for.
