ok so for my 3 gallon planted brackish tank i want a few small puffers:nilly: and was wonderin what are some species i could do?:confused: pix please if ya got some. oh yeah the only other tankmates will be tiny snails for puffer food and a few bumblebee gobies. i was thinking like indian dwarfs or 1 figure 8 or red eye sadle? thnx...:popcorn:
 
Sorry to break this to you, but i don't think ANY puffer would do well in that tank... maybe ONE Dwarf Puffer, but then they aren't brackish, they are 100% Freshwater...

If you want a brackish puffer, the smallest possible tank size your looking at is probably around 15-30G's for a singleton which basically means no tankmates unless you go bigger. Even then you risk losing tank mates to an aggressive species of fish...
 
+1, get a betta.
