Dwarf puffers aren't brackish water fish. (Perhaps a friendly moderator can move this message to Oddballs?).

There happens to be an excellent pinned topic on dwarf puffers over in the Oddballs section. That should answe most of your questions. If there's anything else you need to know, please ask!

Cheers,

Neale

I have some in my 21g community tank and they don't seem to require any special conditions. I have a group of 6 and they hide in my rocks or amongst the plants.
Since buying them I have learnt that they are best kept on their own as they can be nippy and aggressive. Unfortunately, the aquarium centre I brought them from had them as community fish and also had a display containg some mixed with tetras, angels, harlequins etc.
I am keeping a close eye on them and if they become a problem I'll put them in a separate tank. So far, so good!
