2 Puffers 1 Tank?

Can two Porcupine Puffers live in one tank? What size tank would they need? One is about 5" and the other is like 8"

They sure would live together fine!
I would get a 65 maybe a 75?

Would they live in a 46 gallon for 2 months? We are getting new floors and when I have to take the tank down I am replaceing it. Also mine has never went after any fish. He is the 5" I am waiting to hear from the guy who has the other if his has eating any fish. I have not had a problem with mine but he gets 4 silversides every other day. When I got mine he was skinny he is a fat little porker now.

Haha! Honestly I'm sure they would live in that size tank for that time frame, but I wouldn't leave them in there longer than need be so they don't stress :)

I would move them into the new tank at the same time too.
Good luck man!

Ohh they will go in the same tank at the same time. The tank has to be taken down completely. Everything gets to live in rubbermaid containers for 2 days in the kitchen. Luckily it is a FOWLR tank so I don't have to worry about lights. Just water movement and temp.
