Fish Fanatic
The pinned topic on puffers says that each individual fish is different. If you can find a Red-eyed, red tailed puffer, and you get a female bristlenose and provide it with lots of hidey holes, then it might, possibly keep its fins. I think a mature male's bristles would be far too tempting for a puffer to snack on. Still, more than with any other kind of fish except cichlids, your mileage may vary. Keep a close eye on things and have a bail out solution handy (a tank with spare space for the bristlenose). This will never be a safe situation, mind you, because puffers get more aggressive as they mature.
